I find a semi-auto 338 lapua intriguing, I was looking at RND or the bad news. Does anyone own one of these? I am curious as to what kind of accuracy you are getting with it?
Thanks

Has anyone tried a 300wsm in 16" barrel length? If so what kind of velocities were you getting out of it? I was hoping it would get similar velocities to a full length 308.
I think it would make a nice compact tactical rifle.
Thanks
I know most people here use SMK, Berger or Lapua bullets but I found a good deal on Speer 168's anyone have any load data for them in 308? Are they worth even using?
thanks

Re: To crimp or not to crimp?
Chiller,
I know the bolt slams home pretty hard on the ar-10 do you think neck tension will keep the bullet from sliding forward?
I am sure this has been covered before but my question is pertaining to Semi-autos, Crimp or no with bullets without a cannelure? I know that in 308 FGGM and BHA match they are are not crimped and they seem to fun fine through my ar-10.
Re: 308 Win, 208 AMax, RL17
I tried Rl-17 with 208's in both of my 308 bolt guns and 48gr. was the max with Black hills brass, it shot lights out in both guns!
Re: Velocity - Semi vs bolt
Wow judging from the velocities listed in these posts there doesn't seem to be a great loss in the semi-autos.
Thanks for the replies.
