Hi fellas. I have the itch to build a new stick. I'm really happy with my 6.5x47 and would like a big brother for more oomph on elk/moose. Was looking at the 300 and 338 Norma. 338 lapua. 30/338 lapua. Might consider a 7 as well. Rifle needs a 26", plus a brake if appropriate. Shouldn't weigh...

Sorry for the thread revival but I recently picked up a box of 30 cal 150 etips and they have a pressure groove cut now and the pronounced bump between tip and bullet is gone. I'm wondering if anyone has tested the BC on the new version to see if it falls more in line with the 150 btip BC and...

Pull a bullet, weigh it and get a file and section it and post pictures.

Thank you. That pdf is exactly what I needed!

Either my googling isn't all that great or there isn't much info out there. Looking for some load data if anyone has any. 26" 10 twist barrel. Thanks

Hi there. Kind of stumped here and hoping you can help me out. Working up a load for a 338 LM in a weatherby accumark. 1F lapua brass, cci 250 and H1000 with the 300gr OTM Berger. Loaded to 2.906" ogive which puts me 0.160 off the lands (3.066" ogive lands). I started with 3 shots 81, 82.6...

Hammer forging is not cheap. It's expensive.

Just thought I'd share. First picture is of a brand new unfired Savage 12 LRP. Second picture is of a brand new unfired Tikka T3 HB Varmint (my t3 lite looks the same btw). We all know tikka has excellent barrels but ****, for a grand you'd expect better on a savage. No amount of "break...

30 cal bullet test, cow femurs and newspaper part 1 - 24hourcampfire Interesting 30 Cal test on cow femurs.

My niece killed a nice bear over bait with a 7mm rm 120btip 3400fps 30 yard shot drt. My wife also has but lots of meat in the freezer with that combo.

Interested in this thread. I just bought a savage lrp in 6.5cm and am Looking at powders. I have lots of h1000 that I use in my 338lm and would love to use it in the 6.5cm with 140 Bergers. Anyone have Berger data with h1000? I also Can't find h4350 anywhere.

Savage Arms Looks like a good rig in 260rem. 140 Berger's for paper and meat. Any thoughts on the gun?

Thanks for the info.

Thanks. Will start with the Berger data and see if I get where I want to go. Their data is kind of slow.
