[QUOTE="royinidaho, post: 519097, member: 2011"] You didn't, or I didn't catch it, mention accuracy. I would recommend shooting at least 200 yards, 300 would be better. Seeing as you appear to be very meticulous let me recommend trying this. I wouldn't recommend it to anyone that was now very particular regarding reloading. With that same powder, maybe a little less of a charge, and same brass and primer jam that bullet well into the lead. That is drive it so much that the bullet is actually pushed into the case by the rifling. I did this by mistake on 5 reloads. Every thing was better. Pressures were not excessive, ES dropped significantly and group size shrunk to extremely pleasing levels. The cartridge is a 338 RUM. Another choice is a different powder...... [/QUOTE]
