Thanks for the info I have been wondering how well that rifle shoots.

not bad at all. SO I take it the break is pretty effective.

 

[barnesuser28]

Whoops forgot he shot it from a lead sled. But the brake is very effective. It feels like a 308 win.

I have one on order, should arrive in under a month. Hope mine shoots as well as yours!

 

[barnesuser28]

It was very easy to tune it only took 36 rounds to get that load

My little brother Jim has almost the identical rig that shoots about the same.

Great choice for a factory .338L.

Congrats you obviously got a good one.

Very good shooting there too.

When my dad gets back from his black bear hunt id like to stretch it out a little farther. Probably start at 500 and work our way out. The only problem is the wind NEVER stops here in sw north dakota

I've spent a lot of time just south of you in the Timberlake SD area and I can attest to that fact.

It just makes you a better shooter.

i want to do some drop tests to figure out the BC of the Lrx. it is advertised at .667 but i think it is going to be a little higher than that

 

[Riptide]

Great shooting! I was thinking about one of these in the .338...that's about what I would expect. Nice to see they can keep up.

 

[Eaglet]

Congrats to you, your little brother and your dad. He's done great training you.
Great shooting!

 

[barnesuser28]

Thanks, btw it shot all the loada i tested from 84-85 grains in .2 incrementa all at the same point of impact

 

[captacademy]

Great shooting, that's as good as some really custom made rifles that cost thousands!!

 

[barnesuser28]

i know! we sure got a shooter!
