Re: Savage 110FCP 338LM, almost done/first outing After many tests, Ive settled on 89gr Retumbo behind 300gr Scenar's, 215M Primer, .015" off the lands. Very good results out to 1900 yards and it doesn't kill the brass after 2 or 3 reloads.

Re: Savage 110FCP, Almost done (need cheek piece) Best way to shrink your groups at 100 yards is to practice and develop your loads for 200 or 300 yards.

Re: Savage 110fcp @ 1802 yards Thanks Joe. That's out at your play ground.

Re: Savage 110fcp @ 1802 yards ^ One of these days we will meet up.

Re: RCBS 1500 VS HORNADY LOCK N LOAD? Been covered many times. In short, Hornady lock N Load has some issues. RCBS 1500 is a very nice unit.

Re: Replacing the scale, how accurate do I need? More than nist traceability you need consistency. No you dont need a .01gr or better scale. With scales that sensitive breathing near them can be a problem. The RCBS Chargemaster Combo is a great piece of equipment and very...

Re: Savage 110fcp @ 1802 yards ^ I have some, but not tried them yet.

Took a buddy of mine from Phoenix out to Barstow yesterday. Set up my 3'x 3' steel at 1802 yards. Temp was in the mid 90's breezy winds 10-15mph. Had a hell of a time getting on target at first. Where we had placed the steel we could not spot the misses. To much brush and there was as...

Re: What Auto Powder dispenser do you like better? I gave away my Hornady L&L Auto Charge once I got my Chargmaster. In my personal experience, no comparison. The was Chargmaster was far more consistent and repeatable than the Hornady. The Hornady had lots of problems with over throwing on...

Re: First time in the 1 mile club. Thanks guys, I knew we where at least 1760 + a few, but Google Earth (saved GPS cords) puts me at 1875! Thats Awesome!

Went out to the high desert near Barstow with a two buddys of mine yesterday. We started out at 1153 yards (laser ranged) but after making a first shot cold bore hit (and then 4 more consecutive hits following) I decided to go out further. We moved back and ranged the steel at 1535 yards but...

Re: 338 Lapua vs 1/2" Steel Funny you should ask. We shot the plate with a 308 at the same range. It left a crater on the surface and a small bump on the back. I think 3 or 4 hits in the same spot with a 308 would penetrate it. Time for some AR500.

Re: VihtaVuori or Retumbo for .338 Lapua Mag +1 on what Sully says above. I will add, recent tests with US869 show some promise with 300gr'ers and a 26" barrel. Ill be doing more tests with US869 soon.

1/2" thick A36 mild steel @ 100 yards vs 300gr Scenar .338 Lapua Mag. The plate didn't stand a chance. Entry crown Clean hole Exit crown FUN! But I need to pick up some AR500 steel plates now.

Re: Bushnell Elite 1600 ARC vs Swarovski LG I've had 3 months to test mine. They consistently perform and exceed the manufacture specs. I'm still very impressed with the quality of the glass. The battery life seems to be holding up very well. I've used them in the desert to range my 3'x3'...
