    338 Lapua Ackley Improved Loads.

    338 Lapua Ackley Improved Loads.

    Lapua brass, no tumbling yet was going to wait after 2 to 3 firings when I start doing load development. In fact I never even brushed the neck out after the first firing just wipe off the brass by hand and then size the neck, prime, and then charge with powder I haven't chamfered as well. I...

    338 Lapua Ackley Improved Loads.

    Help. As you saw in previous posts, I have a 338 AI with 40 degree shoulder. After 1 firing in a fireformed case, when seating the bullet it will collapse the shoulder. Both cutting edge and sierra bullets. If I use dry lube on the bullet before seating, it will still collapse but not as bad. I...

    338 Lapua Ackley Improved Loads.

    Going to start fire forming and taking some advice off this thread among other places. So if I’m running a 338 LM AI with a bore rider throat, and I’m fire forming normal Lapua brass with RL33 do I start with normal Lapua loads that are down in the high 80 or low 90 grains or can I start up...

    338 Lapua Ackley Improved Loads.

    trying to find a starting load, my build is very similar to yours, 26 inch carbon six barrel, titanium razor action, I plan on shooting 300 grain cutting edge lazers with H1000 powder. The only difference is my Lapua has a 40° shoulder angle vice you’re 37° shoulder angle, I’m guessing it would...

    What Variable to Change When Truing My Rifle at Extending Ranges

    This means that we are stuck using multi BC values past 1000 yards and these must be individually derived. There in lies my question, how do I develop a BC for ranges apart 1000y? Bryn did hint at that but if I remember correctly, unless I didn't retain that part he didn't go into detail...

    What Variable to Change When Truing My Rifle at Extending Ranges

    Thanks for the info guys. Ill be putting all these methods to work I'm sure. One question, what does FFS stand for? I wonder why only shooting at 350-400 yards for truing works well, maybe it has to do with the ability to shoot a confident group at that range and having better data to go...
