    Savage .338 lapua grouping issue.

    Re: Savage .338 lapua grouping issue. no, i dont have one. and maybe it is just that the 300s are that much longer, but it seems that im having to load them longer then anyone else is either.

    Savage .338 lapua grouping issue.

    Re: Savage .338 lapua grouping issue. i believe the mas OAL is about 3.75 or around there. and my rifle will chamber rounds way longer then that. i just cant believe mine would be that much longer than normal, but it is. i guess if i cant get anything to work with this barrel ill have to...

    Savage .338 lapua grouping issue.

    Re: Savage .338 lapua grouping issue. im hoping the bergers shoot better being seated longer. the only problem is they dont fit my mag. i dont know why my chamber would be so deep. has anyone else encountered this? i measured it multiple times and came up with the same thing. how far of...

    Savage .338 lapua grouping issue.

    Re: Savage .338 lapua grouping issue. Yea I wouldn't think there would be that much difference in chambers from rifle to rifle. I measured my chamber with the scenars and it was 3.740 and the bergers are substantially longer then those are. I have another box of them so I'm going to try...

    Savage .338 lapua grouping issue.

    Re: Savage .338 lapua grouping issue. i made it out today, despite it being very windy. at 100 yards i was out of the wind and managed to shoot one jagged hole with 5 shots with the lapua ammo. i was happy with that. then i moved out to 400. the wind was coming from about my 7 o'clock and...

    Savage .338 lapua grouping issue.

    Re: Savage .338 lapua grouping issue. no offense taken. i do a fair bit of shooting and am able to shoot sub moa groups all day with my other rifles. i know the .338 packs more of a punch, but it is a very comfortable rifle to shoot. i am confident that i am not the issue here. i was...

    Savage .338 lapua grouping issue.

    Re: Savage .338 lapua grouping issue. will do! and yea buying this ammo will be a one time deal for me. theres no way i can afford to do that all the time for as much as like to get out and shoot. hopefully i can get out in the next week or so and figure some things out.

    Savage .338 lapua grouping issue.

    Re: Savage .338 lapua grouping issue. yea, and if the lapua ammo shoots good, and i cant get my loads to group, that will give me a new starting point for a new load to try.

    Savage .338 lapua grouping issue.

    Re: Savage .338 lapua grouping issue. yea, im hoping to get a case of lapua brass sometime soon here. my brass shouldn't be throwing my groups off that much though i wouldnt think. at this point its just a little overwhelming bacause i am so new to the .338 lapua and there are so many...

    Savage .338 lapua grouping issue.

    Re: Savage .338 lapua grouping issue. i was using nosler brass and that was getting really stuck everytime. i switched to the norma, which was better, but was still getting a little stuck. i solved this my lightly lubing the neck of the shells before i load them in the mag. could this...

    Savage .338 lapua grouping issue.

    Re: Savage .338 lapua grouping issue. im gonna try and get out this weekend and send some more out to 400. im gonna try a couple different seating depths too. i dont think ill hardly ever be shooting past 1500 so if i cant get these 300s to work out i will drop down to the 250s

    Savage .338 lapua grouping issue.

    Re: Savage .338 lapua grouping issue. that was the next thing i was planning on messing with is seating depth. ive heard too that the bergers are very finicky when it comes to that. at 100 yds i was getting variance both verticaly and horizontally. the day i was shooting 400 yds the wind...
