    Re: 338 Lapua (powder, bullet, primer) & Savage 110BA Sportsmans Warehouse had H1000 in-stock for $20.99/1lb. Not bad. They were out of Retumbo for $22.99/1lb. They're each $19.75/1lb from Powder Valley. Lots of different Magnum Rifle primers in-stock. Seemed to run around $35/1K, and...

    338 Lapua (powder, bullet, primer) & Savage 110BA

    Re: 338 Lapua (powder, bullet, primer) & Savage 110BA For every person that says H1000, Retumbo, or N570 is temperature sensitive and sucks, I find another person that says it isn't and works great. I really didn't want to screw around with 3 different powders, but it's starting to look like...

    Re: What scope for my 338 Lapua The Premier 5-25x has 30MRAD / 103MOA on internal travel. Double-turn knob dials up to 27 mils for the automatic zero-stop. Say 300gr Scenar @ 2700fps is ~23-mils / ~79 MOA to 2000yds from a 100yd zero. How do I calculate the MOA base to get? 20 MOA? 30...
