bullet

I am purchasing bullets to test and start doing load development in my 338 lapua. Right now my list of bullets to test are LeHigh 245 Grain Solids, GS Customs 295 grain solids, and Lapua 300 grain Scenar. The Hooker bullets are just to high dollar ($60 plus bucks for 20, not only no but hell...

I have a fairly good supply of H4895 and 168gr Hornady Match bullets, and I am curious what the most efficient way is to work up a load with the components. The gun is a Savage 10FP .308 with 24" barrel, and I have actually done a ladder test with the aforementioned items in this thread...

Prior to hand loading .223 I purchased some Match 69 Grain from Georgia Arms Reloaders. This bullet appears to shoot extremely well in all of my AR 223 from the 16 to 20" and the 1:8 and 1:9 twist. I can not identify who makes a 69 grain JHP with a cannalur? They use 748 powder and what...

I'm looking for dimensions on both a .338 300gr Lapua Scenar and a 300gr Sierra SMK. I would like overall length and base to Ogive dimensions. Thanks!

Has anyone had any experience with bullets drift when there is literally no wind?? I have been slowly developing drop data for my Dept. rifle (Rem 700P) over the last year. I have shot in 50 yard increments out to 1000 yards with a 100 yard zero. My drop data for 400 yards is 8.0 moa up. I...

I’m loading new Lapua Brass in pretty much a standard configuration. 250gr Scenar over 89.8gr of H4831SC. I’m clocking these at 2925fps. I’ve just been testing loads up until now and have been single loading these for fear of setback affecting my tests. So, now that I’ve found my loads, I’ve...

Many moons ago there was a book advertised in Field ans Stream etc on how to do this. Yep i understand its mostly used in Black powder. Heres What i want to try, Patched 162AMAX outta 308. Why? well i think i have done all i can with da skinny 162AmaX bc .620 @ 2900fps should be fun, if i can...

Years ago my friend had the Idea for a long range rig and decided he needed something with a really high BC. He was in the 50 game and thought those wimpy 750 grainers were not enough.So he had some custom bullets made and had a barrel with a fast twist made.He made the bullet a single shot so...

Has anyone used this bullet and what has been there experience, the BC matches that of the scenar 250 gr at .675. I am wondering if it shoots accurately in peoples .338 LM's

I always feel stupid asking your pros for help, but I gotta learn somehow... I have reloaded 9mm, .223, .22-250 and everything has gone bang just fine. Fast forward to my first attempt at reloading .308 Using Lee dies and my foster co-ax, I made 20 rounds. All brass (once fired FGMM) was...
