[QUOTE="jmden, post: 322214, member: 1742"] I don't know that the 338AX is finicky. Haven't heard that it is. A search here will reveal some pretty good extended range shooting with minimal load development by Kirby. Kirby is typically using 100-102g Retumbo, if I recall correctly, with the 300SMK and getting anywhere from mid to upper 2900's to 3050+ fps with 30" barrels and good brass life. Might call Phoenix re your action and using the Lap brass. I believe he reccomended their .750 bolt for the 338 Lapua chamberings if I went with their action. [/QUOTE]
