No pass through, but the performance mushroom and weight after digging it out was all actually very good. I have shot the majority of my deer between 700-1200 and with a WSM using 208's rarely get a pass through but they usually only go 15-20 yards at best. The 338's almost always drop them on...

I am not saying I disagree more velocity is always a good thing, but weight in LONG range is just more important IMHO. I and my friends have shot a lot of animals at 700+ and the bigger stuff always seems to just get the job done better from our experiences. My most glaring example - Shot a...

Yes it’s slow I figure it’s the H1000 I’m just using it to FF. Gonna switch to retumbo or 33 for final load. But can’t deny I’m kinda shocked with what it’s doing

I’m floored by the FF loads barrel is broken in only less than 50 rounds. Virgin lapua brass with 300 otm 2765fps Cut one hole at 100 Target is 1050 yards

I found otm 300s gonna start with them. If I can get my hands on the A tips I’ll compare them after my FF trial

Ok, I picked up a Lapua Improved 35 degree off a friend of mine. He built it and just started to work with it when he cut bait and built a 416 instead. So very minimal rounds and data. 32" gain twist 9.75-9.35 barrel I have US869, Retumbo, H1000, and some RL33 - But the thing I can't decide on...

IMHO the 5.5-22 NXS is the best for the money for a long range scope. The glass is plenty good, sure there are better but for most people it's plenty good enough. They have 100 MOA in them so with proper setup no reason you can't shoot out to a mile +. Great turrets and built like a tank! And...

300WSM .238 freebore 230's with 69 grains of 7828SSC with CCI 250 30" barrel

YEP

I have 10 shot sub 1/2 MOA targets @ 1000 that say it works.

good info for sure!

Tha That's pretty much what i said. If it came with it, it cannont be removed. The barrel SN isn't in the same discussion because it's not recognized as a SN, Because it's not on the part of the firearm that is considered the Firearm.

I couldn't be a bigger fan of the 300WSM, I have 4 of them. I do think it's the best cartridge possible for 1 mile and under.

as long as it's cosmetic blems like wrong color tip etc. I just got some that WOULDN'T shoot at all. They had a jacket issue. They weren't even worth FF with

Just had a friend set one up with the CZ in 416RBY with a Trij scope. He hasn't went yet. And my other buddy is planning on using his Brown bear gun It's a customized control round feed Winchester in 375RUM with a 2.5-10 NF on it.
