Which .338 and .375 bullets?

[Terry Balding]

Interested in shooting ELR with a .338 Edge and a .37XC. Which bullets have you had success with?

My 338 edge loves the 300 Berger hybrids. With n570.

I run the cutting edge laser in my lapua improved and .375 Am.
For extreme long range they have it pretty well locked up.

In the 375 arena its hard to beat the Flat Line 361 grain solid from Warner Tool. We have had these impacting targets out past 3000 yards and are very happy with the consistency in accuracy.

We also use the Flat Lines in our 338s and 416 the only problem is the 338s don't see as much trigger time now because of the 375s being used more

Hornady is releasing the .375 390 gr a-tip. I'll be running them in my Cheytac. Gunwerks has been testing the atip on game and they work. Check out the b.c. On these bad boys
I'm currently running cutting-edge and they work well but don't expand properly on game in my opinion

I'd go with the .375...

Cutting Edge...Lehigh...Flat Line...Berger...

Doesn't matter?

Or different applications?

300 gr berger Elite Hunters on my Bear and Elk this year. Devastating to them .
Proof 30 "

My Elr rig has the 300 gr Berger Otm and just hit steel at 2053 yrds.
All three of my Edges have 1/10 twist 30" barrel's .

This week I had the opportunity to shoot 300 Berger's, 285 & 256 Warner Flat line bullets at 2100 yards. With 99 grains of RL33 I started with the Berger's. The 256 FL's shot 30 ft. higher, the 285's about the same as the Berger's. Next I loaded the 256's with RL26. Starting at 89 grains and loading up to 93 grains. At 93 grains I got 3050 fps. with no pressure signs.

The only problem hitting the 36" X 36" steel was seeing hits in the dirt. Very wet soil once again.

Terry what twist are you running ?
Thank you

9.4

What about the badlands super bulldozer 338-270grn?

 

[Terry Balding]

I spoke with them today.

I may be limited with the 9.4 twist rate in my barrel.
They expect to have a 1.00 BC .338 bullet out soon.
Likely requiring a 1:7 twist.
