    Help me troubleshoot issue with ELR load please

    I am most certainly not too proud to admit that I believe I have plenty of room for improvement and education. Plus higher end equipment to boot. I would place myself as a seasoned reloader, but I am light years away from being an expert. We shall see in regards to the barrel. I will be very...

    Help me troubleshoot issue with ELR load please

    Yes SD, not ES. 40 may be an exaggeration but 20-25 has been pretty standard for development in this rifle. No question I can improve, I think we all could in some way. That’s exactly why I’m here, to learn! I guess what has me scratching my head more than anything is I have had no problem...

    Help me troubleshoot issue with ELR load please

    While I would totally agree that a five round test is useless when determining your true SD, but in my first five rounds, if I am in an unacceptable SD range already, wouldn’t shooting 20 rounds just be wasting components and barrel life? In my mind, testing velocity consistency over 20 rounds...

    Help me troubleshoot issue with ELR load please

    For load development, just five rounds. An example of what I’m seeing is something like 2843, 2874, 2834, 2851, 2820. Velocity values don’t seem to have a pattern or consistency.

    Help me troubleshoot issue with ELR load please

    I am measuring with a Caldwell premium g2 chrono. I have been able to shoot side by side with a Labradar. On the day I did that, it was reasonably accurate. Of course I know environment can change that day to day. I have considered a mandrel, that’s probably a decent place to start. With the...

    Help me troubleshoot issue with ELR load please

    I do have like 30 CCI mag primers, I could give that a try. I think I’m out of powder choices though. Atleast staying inside of temp stable powders. I have a ton of H1000 but it’s a little fast for this cartridge/bullet.

    Help me troubleshoot issue with ELR load please

    Hey guys, I am loading my 338 Lapua Improved. I am trying to get my SD under 10 fps, but so far I’ve not been very successful. I can absolutely get 1/4 minute loads but nothing I do will get me inside of that 10 fps SD. With this being an ELR rig, I feel like that is a must. Will somebody help...

    Magazine Feeding AI Cartridges

    Hey guys, I’m certain this has been discussed, but the threads I was able to find some info in were fairly dated. I just thought I’d ask to see if anything’s changed in 7 years. LRI rebarreled my 338 Lapua into a 338 Lapua AI. The magazines (accurate mags) don’t seem to fit/feed the improved...

    Bartlein/gunsmithing Question

    Thank you Frank. That’s exactly why I bought the barrel that I bought. I do agree, I wish they would have given me a call before they did the work. But what’s done is done, maybe it’s all moot 🤷🏼‍♂️ I am on my way to get it now, I will start shooting it next week.

    Bartlein/gunsmithing Question

    This is comforting. Consensus says to just shoot it and see what happens, which probably is my only real option at this point. Hopefully this thing will be a hammer and I am just simply overthinking this issue.

    Bartlein/gunsmithing Question

    This was my thought as well, however I know that nobody is immune to mistakes. Things happen.
