[QUOTE="tackdriver10, post: 570951, member: 21430"] Just got a batch of Berger 338 in the other day and started my load workup. First load I tried was 89gr. of H-1000. Grouped well, but the ES was a bit high. The second load was 90gr. of H-1000, it also grouped well at 100yds, and the ES was 21. So I decided to see what it would do at 300 yards, and here's the pic. [IMG]http://i869.photobucket.com/albums/ab251/tackdriver10/338Berger.jpg[/IMG] Thats a 2 inch orange sticker, and although I haven't measured exactly what the group size is, I'm gonna say it's about an inch. So far I'm happy with the results, and think I got really lucky by finding a good load on the 2nd try. Here's the specs.. 338 Lapua Magnum Berger .338 300gr. OTM Lapua Brass 90gr. H-1000 CCI 250 Primer Bullet seated +.005 in the lands. I know its not exactly benchrest standards. But its gonna be a sub 1/2 moa group.. Thats good enough for me!:D Got an idea where some unlucky whitetails are hanging out, so I think I will go drop the hammer and see how it performs on game. Although, after seeing pics from another thread, I have a pretty good idea what the end result will be. [/QUOTE]
