Yes on 28. 30 is so hard to find hard case for and it's very top heavy when slung in shoulder
Wow those are 338 Sherman velocitieshi I built a 338 edge with a ARC NUCLEUS action and a Brux barrel 30 inch and I reach 3018 fps average with 97.5 N570 and a-tip 300 gr, no sign of over pressure, primer good(not flattened) no stiff bolt so my question is what your average speed with your set up because im a lot faster than the load of MR Carlock ! I'm afraid a little bit!
now with a lot of test I drop to 95 gr and run around 2930 fps with better result 1/2 to 3/4 moa and ES single digit I stay with this really like this gunWow those are 338 Sherman velocities
Using Sierra 250 mk's 3150 was the sweet spot for accuracy out of a 28" Pacnor select match barrel. That's running 97 grains H1000. I worked into pressure at 99 grains but was loosing primer pockets so didn't crono. That's in a stiller predator action and Norma 300 UM brass . Every set up is going to be different.hi I built a 338 edge with a ARC NUCLEUS action and a Brux barrel 30 inch and I reach 3018 fps average with 97.5 N570 and a-tip 300 gr, no sign of over pressure, primer good(not flattened) no stiff bolt so my question is what your average speed with your set up because im a lot faster than the load of MR Carlock !

How is your brass life? Getting nervous as I will start load development maybe in a week. Stupid expensive ADG I don't want to even put 1lb too much pressure.Might not be entirely relevant, but I'm getting 2950 with RL 33 and 285eldm in my 338 RUM, 26.5 " barrel at 1700' elevation. Slight brass swipe on the base, easy bolt lift.
Shawn runs H1000 exclusively for the temp stability and it is much easier on the throat than N570 which he said will wear the throat 30-40% faster than H1000. Mine have run 3,020 with a 275 Lazer and Reloder 33 with a 30" and my 28" runs the 275 Lazer at 3,030 with N570How is your brass life?

I bought some ADG back in 2016 which was the first brass I had acquired, after 2 loads the primers would literally fall out. Maybe it was a bad batch? I switched to Bertram and Nosler, have gotten 6 loads out of each of those brands without issue.How is your brass life? Getting nervous as I will start load development maybe in a week.

Thanks...I don't have any Vit powders and don't ever plan on using them. I have a 8lb hunting rifle with a 26" barrel and I'm hoping for 2800 min for velocity with a 300. Key word is hoping, and I have no interest in ruining brass. I just tend to push it as far as possible and keep the accuracy I want. I only have about 7lb of H1000 and much more of 33, Retumbo, 869, 50BMG.Shawn runs H1000 exclusively for the temp stability and it is much easier on the throat than N570 which he said will wear the throat 30-40% faster than H1000.
