    My 338 Norma has a firing pin that floats so free I can hear it slide back and forth when I tip the bolt up and down. My .260 bolt is tighter and does not do that. If yours is really tight, perhaps it would leave a mark.

    Name the malfunction

    Interestingly, this can’t happen with 6.8 SPC, Grendel and all the other calibers with a base wider than 5.56

    Name the malfunction

    Feed lips worn or bent and unable to keep the top round in the mag as the bolt is in rearward motion during extraction/ejection. There’s a quick way to clear it without tools(about 5 seconds) but hard to describe. I’ll try: 1) pull back hard on charging handle. It’ll move less than an inch. 2)...

    Question: do the A1 barrels fit the A2/M2 chassis? I have an A1 with 2 barrels, thinking of upgrading to the the M2 but I got such a good deal on my 338 Norma barrel, I’d like to keep it. I’d definitely lose money if I had to repurchase it.

    Undoubtedly, this was a fun little project that cost only time. Eventually, I’ll probably get something like that

    I whipped up this little guy for my A1 a while back and thought some might like to see it. I dislike the bulky rail adaptors and this keeps my bore axis a little lower as well. Plus it was a fun project. I turned some stainless round stock down to the appropriate diameter, made a shank and...

    .338 Norma Magnum & Norma Magnum Imp. Load Data

    Yes of course. I’m a seasoned reloader. But where is the real start? The max load in one book is lower than the start load in another. I will be working up, but with the cost of components, I’m trying to avoid unnecessary waste. Should I go with Hodgdon’s advice (They pointed to the Sierra...

    .338 Norma Magnum & Norma Magnum Imp. Load Data

    I’m looking for data to deconflict different sources for a max load. I’m using 300gr Berger OTM with Retumbo. Standard SAAMI chamber. As you probably know, data is scarce. Sierra 6th edition lists the following: 300gr SMK 78.7gr Retumbo @ 2450fps with COAL 3.680” *But* I got this from...
