[QUOTE="triggerfifty, post: 115881, member: 4907"] Barney makes a good barrel doesn't he? I am using the 375 Lost River bullet. It's even better than the .408 bullets, when they were good. They had a short QC problem for a while, but these bullets are top rate. Typical groups at all ranges are from .5 to .75 to 1.00 MOA. Unofficial shots on steel plates that are 12" square at 2056 yards were shot after shot thru 7 rounds. I'll crawl into the rocks and take some pics of that. I plan to put a remote video on the plate and drill some rounds through it. These rounds also went through 1/2" cold rolled steel targets at 1000 yards (pics on my website). You should try the 270 LRBT solid. In barney's barrel it should rock. I have no interest in LRBT and only push the best bullets, but at these speeds, jacketed bullets blow apart sometimes, as you know. Do you make a detachable magazine setup for the 338 gun of yours? What is the mag length? Interested in joining forces on a repeater design of my 375/408 gun? I can supply mags that are .408 cheytac length +.300". The mags capture the shoulder of the cartridge and the tips of the bullets do not rest on the mags internals. [/QUOTE]
