where are you finding it for $1k? Best deal i can find right now is a little under $1200, but when I say half, i do mean half of that.

At what range are we talking?

Not wanting to hijack my own thread here, but while we are talking fast twist 338s, Martinakl, I told you I was on that 8.6 Blk train too, and it is awesome. Not at all long range but this gun is too handy and fun not to use a lot! And the fast twist does insane things to animals.

I'm currently batting these two options back and forth for a scope to top my latest project (pictured below, 338 RCM). Both more or less have the same feature set I am looking for in a scope for this gun, and I am trying to weigh pros and cons of each based on where they are different. Problem...

It has been more than a few months, but the barrel and feed work is done and my little beast is back together. Looks pretty mean I think. Now just to decide on a scope. I'm currently back and forth between the Vortex Razor HD LHT 4.5-22x50 FFP, and the Athlon Ares BTR Gen2 4.5-27x50 FFP...

We did eventually find some. Thanks

My gunsmith who is doing the rebarrel work for my 16.5" 338 RCM I posted about earlier is having a really hard time finding headspace gauges to rent for this job. Would anyone who has 338 RCM go and no go gauges be kind enough to let me borrow them for this one job. Or does anyone know where I...

How has your experience been with the HH? I’ve had good luck with CEB and HH so far, but even if I was shooting Barnes I’d want a cheap match target load as well.

I plan on shooting 250 grain bullets. I think 225 would be more ideal, but I plan on using the CEB lasers in this, and I'm not going to do a ton of practice with those since they're so pricey, and there are no 225 grain match bullets available. So, I figured I'd take the higher BC and lower...

What is this from?

Thank you and thank you too

What’s it say for 250 grainers?

So what about charge weights? Are they roughly equal in any given cartridge?

In what ways? I’ve never used either. Are starting charges similar? How interchangeable are they, if at all? Do they produce similar velocities?

Loaded a few dummy rounds to check feeding once my rifle is done. Those are 250 grain PPU OTM with the base seated right at the shoulder/body junction. End up being pretty long but fits in the Mauser magazine perfectly.
