My New Long Range .338 Lapua

[Pdvdh]

What kind of pressures?

The two datas totally contradict one another!

Dunno, it doesn't list pressures, but I would expect safe pressures. Here's the link to the Nosler reloading data web site:

Does your Mark V show pressure signs in the bolt lift or anything?

No, If any of them did I would change the load. Wby brass can be hard to aquire at times and I don't like hot loads anyway.

Got to send about 60 rounds down the tube while there. It was built by Joe Starns in Conrad and he has a very nice range to test his stuff. I even managed to smack a couple 300 smk's on his 2100 yard 36" gong. After that going back to the 1000 and 1200 yard target seem easy. This is my first all out long range rig, and as you can tell, I am hooked!!

Still plenty of time to practise before hunting season. I need to lean to read the wind before I try long shots on game. But if it is a calm morning Elk and Muley's beware.

Nice rig

So, now that you have your 338 Lapua, are you happy with it and why?

Nice rig

This just blows my mind away 2100 yds thats awsome so what kind of moa drop is there at that range? I am getting up to 1000 so going to 2000 is not even imagineable for me.

338 Lapua on a Savage action has been done.. PEI Rob on Canadiangunnutz did it.. not sure if he would recommend doing it again but it has been done.

So, now that you have your 338 Lapua, are you happy with it and why?

Yes, I am very happy and have over 500 rounds down the tube. Why am I happy, well , it's easy to load for, brass life is great, it does everything I wanted it to. Longest shot was at 1137 yards on a small KS. whitetail with a 10 to 15 mph full value wind. I could go on and on. But maybe this will sum it up quicker.

Best of my memory we dialed up like 83 MOA.
