    408 CT sub sonic loads?

    Re: 408 CT sub sonic loads? I suppose you could shoot a fast powder to obtain a 100% burn rate in the barrel while keeping the bullet around 1000fps. A big issue would be that the bullet would not be going fast enough to stabilize. I would guess that if you were able to get a successful...

    Need advice for 375/408

    Re: Need advice for 375/408 Thanks for all of the data, I think I will sit back and see what Berger does with the 300gn Hybrids for the .338. If they toughen the rounds up a little and increase the BC a little, then I think the .338 is the winner. I am going to start watching the GS414 and...

    Re: Got Some Berger 338 300 grain bullets!! Thanks for the feedback on the new Berger 300gr. I am quickly deciding that a new .338LM is in my near future and is set up for this bullet. I have one question though. I know there are several here that use QUICKLOAD (Ballistics Program). I...

    Need advice for 375/408

    Re: Need advice for 375/408 Thanks for the info!! I am starting to get more interested in the .338LM. The new Berger 300gr Hybrid results are looking very good and I have learned that having uniform factory (Lapua) brass can make life a whole lot easier.

    Need advice for 375/408

    Re: Need advice for 375/408 Thanks for the replies! I have been looking at ballistics programs and doing a lot of forum reading. Right now, the show stopper is the bullets. Sierra 300SMK's are the easiest to obtain but their relatively low BC as compared to LeHigh makes them less desirable...

    Disclaimer: I have used the SEARCH function many many times.. I mostly shoot 1000 yard IBS competition but want a tactical 375/408. After reading these forums ad nauseum I still have a few questions. People refer to 375 CT (Cheytac) and 375/408CT are they referring to the same caliber?? I am...

    20 MOA bases- Do i need one ?

    Re: 20 MOA bases- Do i need one ? Here is another option. Expensive but works great. I can roll from 100 yards to 1200 yards and back to 100 yards and the point of impact stays the same. I have a MOA chart for each 100 yards. If I'm shooting say 800 yards, I simply roll the indicator to...

    7mm twist rate

    Re: 7mm twist rate I really wanted to shoot Berger 168's or Berger 180's in my 1-9 twist 7mmRM. Interestingly though, my gun loves Sierra 168 SMK's, 70.7gr H1000, GM210M primers, necks turned to .120" and 2.7875" OAL with Stoney Point comparator. Of course your throat is probably...

    Question for The ELR Guys...

    Re: Question for The ELR Guys... I thought about the .338LM but am currently shooting a 7mmSTW that can "plink" a three foot metal plate at a mile pretty consistently. If you have an exterior ballistics program, look at the 7mm JLK180gr VLD or the 7mm Berger 180gr at 3000fps. It is still...
