[QUOTE="SidecarFlip, post: 737014, member: 39764"] CCI or Federal small rifle and small rifle match depending on bullet. Regular for the 55 gn Hornady Boat Tails and match for the V-Max I hunt deer with here in Michigan. H335 and 322 (I think). I buy 8 pound jugs, matter of fact, I buy 8 pound jugs of every powder I use..... Powder wise, it don't take much..... high 20 grains as a start charge, I'm loading 26-28, 30 max depending on bullet weight. I use the RCBS powder measure and a beam scale. I don't trust electronics. I think I said before that I use RCBS Gold Medal Match dies and bullet seater. I just happen to crimp them with a Lee collet crimper. The RCBS Gold Medal Bullet Seater has no crimp option. I actually use the Lee Collet crimpers on all my rifle loads, 338 Lapua included. Simple and quick. No AR here. I actually have a bolt action 223 Savage and a Ruger Mini 14 Target accurized by ASI. The Mini is every bit as accurate as the bolt gun and it's semi auto. At 100 yards I can blow the head off a tack holding the target paper. Mini's are notorious for inaccuracy but the target is pretty accurate out of the box. A bit of massaging by ASI and it's wicked. There are some neat U-Tube video's on the Mini 14 Target and what it will do, stock. I really like mine. I do a light crimp so the bullets don't move in the magazine on the Mini or the bolt gun, not that it recoils much. I just don't take chances. [/QUOTE]
