[QUOTE="Whiskers, post: 356881, member: 22666"] I'm new to LRH and having a new barrel made by Kreiger 26" w/ 1:10 twist in .338 WM on my Rem700LA with a HS Precision stock & Defensive Edge cheek piece (w/ "thanks" to Shawn Carlock for answering my questions). Anyone having a good pet load for 250gr ,338WM that I can start out with? Reloading manual info is currently scarce for this caliber, although I expect that may change due to recent popularity. I'm experienced hunter but always used 30-06 and limited my distance shots up to now. Desire is to work up an accurate load I can trust for LRH shots as they may present themself. To start reloading .338WM, so far I've managed to find 100 rds of new brass, and 1# each of RL-19 and RL-22 plus two boxes of 250gr bullets. While there is no immediate "rush", I figured I could use this time to start prep work on a few loads while I'm waiting for return of my barreled action. Any insight/info on this subject most appreciated. Thanks! [/QUOTE]
