[QUOTE="lv2hunt, post: 896818, member: 4842"] Howdy, I have scoured the internet and this forum for .338 Norma Magnum load data as I will be receiving my rifle back from the Gunsmith soon. I have found some information but am still in search of more, if anyone has load data for this cartridge and would be willing to share what works for you please share. From what I have read it looks like Alliant R-22, R-25, Hodgdon H-1000, Retumbo, Ramshot Magnum, and Viht. N570 powders would all be good performers. I am partial to Hodgdon powders and the Berger 300-grain hybrid bullet but am open to suggestions as well. What I have on hand and would like to use for development: (Initial load possibility from what I have read would be 88-grains of either H-1000 or Retumbo, with bullet seated anywhere between .005 and .015 off the lands). .338 Norma Magnum brass, once fired CCI 250 or Federal 215 M primer Berger 300-grain hybrid bullets Hodgdon, H-1000 or Retumbo Please include as much data as you can, Thank you! lv2hunt [/QUOTE]
