    8 twist .338?

    Re: 8 twist .338? Augustus has several tight twist 375s, including one that is an 8.0 and one that is a 6.5 exit twist. He does not have a tight twist 338. Frank and I both have an exit twist barrel at 5.4" for .338. I think one more at that twist may exist in North America, Washington I...

    Opinions on the correct caliber.

    Time of Flight 4.05 seconds.....

    Re: Time of Flight 4.05 seconds..... +1 what Cali_tz said. 50% hits at distances over 2,000 yards is great shooting. From that distance a gnat fart can push you off target. JeffVN

    Over Pressure or too long of a case?

    Re: Over Pressure or too long of a case? If the primers are ok, no ejector mark on the brass, no sticky bolt lift, then you very likely not seeing pressure issues. I agree its brass length. I had a bolt action rifle that the brass stuck and could not be extracted from the chamber. The...
