[QUOTE="Ludicrous, post: 698337, member: 46580"] Love it! Zeroed it today. Really need a 30 moa mount for the scope with that Trijicon. It kicks a little but not bad at all. Annoyed everyone near me with the muzzle brake. Confirmed that Hornady brass does stick a little, not bad though, just had to give the bolt a little more lift to cam the cases out. No hitting or hammering needed. Need to work on load development, 90gr H1000 is not it. Didn't have time to shoot any more than my 40 rounds, had to run home and babysit a sick baby. Barrel gets smoking hot after 10 rounds. Might keep it to five or less at a time between cool downs. I shot the 308 with 208gr Amax's while the 111 cooled down. 40 gr of Win 748 was the ticket there. First time shooting the 208's out of the BA10. Like them a lot. Back to the range on Monday for the Lapua load development. Once I find the node I will load up my test batch of cases again for round 2. Anyone have issues with powder residue after the muzzle blast covering your glasses and scope with the 338LM? I had to clean my glasses and scope after each couple rounds... [/QUOTE]
