    Norma 338 250gr gtx

    I tried. It's tough out here as we dont have a lot of landmarks and its only a 50 yard difference. I wish I would have shot it with my backup rangefinder......oh well. At least I didn't get burned on the bullets....lol.

    Norma 338 250gr gtx

    Thinking about this after I got home. I had 100% predicted hits to 1350 then jumped to the mile. I'm doubtful the bc changed that much from 1350 to 1750. I'm betting there was some error on the rangefinder return. The repeating on the shot was too close to be from going trans....imo.

    Norma 338 250gr gtx

    I shot these today at 1350 and 1748. 1350 was exactly as predicted, 1750 impacted about .7m low. Repeatability was good.

    Norma 338 250gr gtx

    What a pleasant surprise. I loaded up 10 with h1000 and picked a couple of seating depths, one at mag length and one a bit closer. Both shot reasonably well. The longer shot very well. Speeds were 2950 spreads were tight and 100 and 300 accuracy were well south of moa. Made me happy to have a...

    Beam scale… am I out of my mind?

    I ran two beams and a trickler for years. I could drop a charge and trickle up the settled scale and by the time it was done, the other settled down. I moved to the v4/120i after watching my neighbor meet my times.....BUT he was doing other tasks in the few seconds it took to throw. It takes...

    I weighed 20 last night and had about .3grs max spread and most were within .1grs.

    Norma 338 250gr gtx

    Mine shows a 7fps advantage (1400) to the 300smk I'm shooting now (2805fps) vs 1393fps both at 1500. Both show super through 1900yds. Hopefully someone has sent these on a trip.

    Norma 338 250gr gtx

    Anyone launch any of the Norma 338 250gr gtx pills? I bought a bunch of them from Raven rocks for cheap. I'm curious if anyone has worked up a G7 or what results you've seen from seating depth. I'll include a pic of one next to a 300smk that's been pointed. Thanks in advance.

    Norma .338 250gr GTX

    I'm bumping this one. I have 1k of them that just landed and would like to hear what you've seen. I'll be stoking them in a edge. Here's one next to a pointed 300smk.

    Recession - 2022 / 2023 / 2024

    When the NAFTA/spotted owl/caribou....etc was used to destroy the lunber industry, I worked for a company (USNR) who built and serviced mill equipment. We moved from local work to international.....which was short lived as the foreign companies would order 1 of our products and then build it...

    Update #2..I think my can is messed up…Weird day at range

    You could try to sharpie a bullet. It's easy to see on target, perhaps it'll show up on the baffle.

    You send your barrel back because "It won't shoot" - first thing the maker does is.....

    The favorite maker here told me to send it in dirty. I had a 2b that wouldn't shoot anything under 3moa. I replaced it with the same and now it's a hammer.

    Barrel Settle-Down - Interesting Results

    I spun up a 300win that shot 3moa with everything I threw at it. I thought my scope or base must be a mess. Swapped in a known good scope....nothing. I took it up to #8 base screws and bedded the rail....nothing. I pulled that tube and spun up another. That one shot well under moa from the start.

    I learned that banging my redheaded chick friend's hot mom was against the rules. I told her I was going to and she laughed at me and said I should try. She was lying. The best sex comes from the craziest chicks.

    Texas Residents Have Contamination Concerns After Solar Panel's Damaged

    I've worked on 100 year old generators in hydro that are still running wooden bearings. What's the service life of a wind turbine? Who balances the spikes? They can't do away with hydro and keep on keepin on without MASSIVE efforts to regulate the power.

    Update #2..I think my can is messed up…Weird day at range

    My general rule of thumb is any shift in accuracy above 3ish moa is typically optics related.

    .308 Elk Bullet Performance

    I've killed 30 some odd elk now. They're not hard to kill. Feed a 308 a cup/core and you'll be able to pick it up and eat it.......a lot farther away than you will believe.
