338 Norma vs 33nosler

Hey everyone,

I know this post is probably beating a dead horse…

But I’m currently starting a new build, I will be building a rifle strictly for elk hunting.

I am looking for insight on pro’s and con’s between the 33 nosler and 338 Norma.

I will be reloading and will be using a 3.850 magazine and will strictly be using a magazine and not single shot etc.

I will be putting a Bartlein 24 inch carbon barrel paired with a coup de grace bolt action.


Thanks so much!

Can't find Berger 130gr Hybrid Target in AB Mobile

As the title says, I see 140gr but not 130 gr. So far, my new rifle seems to prefer the Federal GM Berger Hybrid 130gr to the 130gr stuff that I've tested (though I have some Federal GM Berger Hybrid 140gr coming in tomorrow for further testing), but I can't find it in AB Mobile. I'm sure it's there and I'm missing something. Also, there are a ton of identical profiles with different "strings" at the end such as "{PDM} Berger Target Hybrid(1079)": what are those? Of course, they all seem to be in 140gr as well....

Cheers,
Adam

25x47 or 6.5x47 for NRL Hunter

I'm about to order a barrel for NRL hunter matches and I'm torn between the 6.5x47 Lapua or the 25 cal version.

Given the power factor requirements I'd have to send a 134 around 2840, or I could shoot a heavier 6.5 like a 144 lrht at 2650.

I guess what I'm really hung up on is whether or not a lighter 25 cal bullet going 2850 offers any advantage in terms of recoil or ballistics over a slow high bc 6.5?

If you need any vouches, I have plenty of people on here I've done business with that will vouch! :)

9mm Micrometer Die Options - Automated Progressive Compatible

I am starting to deck out my new press with dies and as I load multiple different types of 9mm bullets (HP, RN, RNFP) I would like to make any switches as easy as possible.

I have most of the stations figured out already, being automated the dies need to be fairly "forgiving" or be designed in such a way that they can centre the brass (wide funnel type mouth).
  1. Case Feed
  2. FW Arms decapping die
  3. FW Arms Dynamic Hold Down die
  4. FW Arms 9mm Carbide Sizing die
  5. FW Arms 9mm Expander die
  6. Powder drop
  7. Powder check
  8. Buller drop
  9. 9mm seater die with micrometer
  10. 9mm bullet crimp die with micrometer
So for 9 & 10 what are good micrometer options that will work with an automated progressive? For the seater and crimp I have found micrometer options from both Redding and Lyman offer:

Looking for recommendations (or indeed issues if there are any). Thanks in advance.
