I have shot 88gn once to adapt the brass case to the the Hornady OAL gage and it was around 2.635 FPS.
Where should I start the 5 group load?
My rifle has 3 shots thru the barrel.
Thank you guys in advance.
I am new to the rifles reloading and after find a good spot on my 308W I started to do my 338 LM reloading development:
Rifle GAP Precision Hospitaller 28' Barrel and 9.75 groove.
Lapua Brass trimmed to 2.712.
Bullet Lapua Scenars 300gn. 1.002 ogive length
Shoulder 2.261.
Chamber OAL bullet...
I have two custom build rifles which took time and patience. They shoot good?
Very good.
But If I was on the road again to buy a rifle I would chose about Cadex or AI.
So its is just to buy this version here and three more rods and done ( my 338 has a 28"barrel and an APA Fat Bastard?

Cheers!
I have a magnetospeed sporter unopened because I do have a 338LM with a APA Fat Bastard and I know they are incompatible.
I asked Wise Precision if my sporter will be compatible to my 338 using their mount, but I got no answer.
The question is, will my sporter be compatible with larger muzzle...
9 LBS of Varget from Basspro Shop, they show it as ready to ship and I bought, so they called me telling it will be shipped in 60 days.
Since it was hard to find I agree, now there is Varget popping out and I don't know if I will get mine from them.
I need to make the Carbon Ring vanish, right?
I am going to set the trigger to 1.5 lbs as before.
I will try new brass again.
Here is my groups when developing the load.
I liked the Varget 44.2gn because were 4 shots at the same hole, and I faint the 5th.
Lapua Brass, SMK 168 bullets, 0.010...
My Rifle, a PVA building on TL3 Action on a Rock Creek 26" 308 Win barrel 9 twist, AICS AXMC Chassis which usually shoots .5- .4 MOA all day. I have about 120 shoots thru it.
This is my first time ever I shoot rifles.
It has a Timney two stage trigger set to 1,5lbs so I disassembled the chassis...
There is where I have bought and they canceled my order.
I ordered 9Lbs from Basspro Shop and they confirmed the order but sent me an e-mail telling me it will be delayed even to 60 days...
I called the chat and they told me they don't have it but expect to get more in the end of march...
