[QUOTE="baldhunter, post: 2019025, member: 11853"] My 338-06 was a Remington 700 Long Range 30-06 rebored by JES.It is one of the best shooting rifles I own.I really like the 200gr bullets,both the Silver Ballistic Tips and Accubond.My rifle shoots them both same POI.It's accurate with several loads.I use the WLRM Primer on all of them.Here is my load data. 180gr Accubond 58.0grs Varget 3010fps 180gr Accubond 60.0grs Big Game 2940fps 200gr Accubond 60.0grs 760 200gr Accubond 62.0grs H4350 2740fps 200gr Accubond 63.0grs Hunter 2730fps 200gr Accubond 59.5grs BLC-2 2830fps 200gr Accubond 56.0grs Varget 2849fps 210gr Partition 54.0grs Varget 2721fps 200gr Accubond 59.0grs CFE223 2807fps 200gr Accubond 59.0grs Big Game 2812fps 200gr Accubond 61.0grs Accurate 4350 2661fps 210gr Partition 59.0grs Accurate 4350 2777fps I use Lee 338-06 A-Square dies.I use once-fired 30-06 Winchester brass.Resizing it is easy,just make sure to lube the inside of the neck well since your necking the brass up.After sizing the brass,it's going to be just a tad short on length,but that has no affect on it what so ever.I've only shot 200gr Nosler Silver Ballistic Tips,200gr Accubonds and 210gr Nosler Partitions.They run around 2800fps and it shoots about as flat as a 30-06 with 165gr bullets.The 225gr would probably be a good bullet too,but it would be a little slower and would be about like a 200gr in the 30-06.As for powders,just about everything between Varget to 4350.
