[QUOTE="Swamplord, post: 642869, member: 2460"] I managed to procure 6 boxes of Noslers 300 grain .338 Accubonds recently. Had a new bbl in 338 Edge to break in and loaded a mild 338 RUM load with 250 gr Hornady's and at the same time loaded up 9 rnds with the 300 Accubond to try, used a 338 RUM load, 87.0 gr of RL25 seated the bullet with a coal @ 3.775 giving me an ogive oal @ 3.050, cycled and fed perfectly with a Wyatts extended box mag, did not chronograph the loads... breaking in bbl and fireforming brass at the time.. Used new Rem brass full length sized in 300 Rum Redding die then neck opened up with an RCBS 338 RUM die, stock Rem trigger and plastic factory stock opened up ( unbedded) for an Obermeyer 9.5 Twist 30" bbl in Rem Varmint contour at the time and still produced fair results at 100 yards . Have since installed a Jewell trigger and still waiting for a Greybull stock from LRH...and Redding 338 Edge dies..... will be doing some serious load developement with fireformed neck sized brass shortly, so far sounds very promising...
