I just got a 30-338 lapua improved from a friend 100rds or less on the barrel. It's a 28" hunting gun built by clay Spencer on a sako 995-s action. (A repeater that cycles well). It came with custom dies and 50 pcs of fireformed brass. His load he was shooting was 168 bergers over 104grs of us869. It's a mild load and runs 3590fps. He said 869 was too slow and he could actually fill the case to the brim and seat a bullet with no pressure signs. I want to shoot 210 bergers and 208 a maxes in this beast and reloader 33 looks like a good candidate. Has anyone shot this powder in something similar. I tried it in my 7stw and worked up to 3315 fps with a 180 berger with good accuracy. This load was probably way too much for a standard 700 or 110. It's a loong throated sako 995-s
