Im new to the 338 Lapua game , I've been playing with 300 RUM's for a little while , but this is a substantial jump for me.
Im getting a Nesika action mated to a 32" Krieger 1x10 chambered in 338 LM 'improved' with a .364 neck .

I'd like to be slinging the 300 gr accurately and wondering what the differences are with the improved over the standard mag cartridge. Good powders ?

Can I use the same seater die ? Who do you guys prefer for re-sizing dies? Redding ? Forster ?

Any other help or advice would be greatly appreciated .

 
Re: DATA for 338 Lapua "IMPROVED" wanted

Here is what I use in my rifle

US-869 110 grains with a 300MK
Retumbo 102 grains with a 300MK

As for dies I had custom ones made.
