2012 Ax 308 LW barrel 16.5" Aac Titan 338lm can. 178 bhtp and 178 amax and 2000mr 2600 fps flat . 178s bthp shot much better than the Amax.
1k plus was a bit tricky but still got some solid hits on steel.

I can't comment on that....BUT......I'm digging your screen name

I have a 2001 Type R with K24, a LOT of goodies and a Rotrex C38R ....and some AWD parts laying around
Yeah I've seen your user too SRpowah and knew it could only mean one thing......I've got love for Nissans too....admittedly more affection for RB's though.

Type R and everything related may be going bye-bye so I have more to contribute to this thread.....I've debated it for years but at this point after resisting a multi-cal AI for about 8 years I'm about to succumb.....
 
Shot the Raton Sporting Rifle Match today with the ol 6BRUH barrel. First match with this rifle so far and it performed flawlessly. Myself, not so much but I didn’t zero any stages which I’m grateful for. Going to try and run the 22GT next month View attachment 7597674
Looks 👍

Any of these comp cals run in AXMC or AXSR?

I'm wondering if longer action leads to rounds flipping in chamber while cycling. (Excuse my ignorance.....just soaking up info and adding bullet points to list of what's possible or not)

@SuperBoot was running an AXMC in 6.5creedmoor and kicked ass today in that match. Maybe he can elaborate some
 
Also I can’t imagine too many issues if you run the bolt like you mean it. Had no issues with ejection with the 6BRA today. If you run the bolt really really slow it’ll flip them on top the mag but running it like a normal person, zero probs.
 
Checking in.......did you ever have the .338LM factory barrel reamed out to 33XC?
I did. I was able to push 300 Berger’s and ATIPS up to pressure around 3030-3045fps. Settled on a load around 2880ish. The intended purpose of this rifle is for the light class in ELR so I have two barrels on order that are much heavier to bring my overall weight up to around 24lbs. Instead of wasting my bullets, primers, and powder on that factory barrel I’m just waiting for my heavier barrels to arrive.

I also caught the 416cal bug and I’m thinking about just selling my AXSR to afford parts for a new 416 build. Decisions decisions. The shear amount of back n forth in the ELR community with light class is annoying and it’s making me want to shoot the heavy class and be done with the drama.

Thanks for sharing.

Educate me......how much of a velocity increase is it over the factory. 338NM?

I already have .338NM dies (long story) but never had a .338 setup.

This would be my first and wondering if reaming out a factory barrel is worth it?

i don’t have enough experience with either the 33XC or any experience with the 338NM.

Myself and my shooting partner just made the switch to 33XC. In his 30” barrel he was able to shoot to 3240ish before he got pressure. He’s settled on a load around 3150 I believe with 300 Berger’s and RL50.

one of my favorite things about the 33XC is how easy it is to get low SDs. It’s not unheard of to get consistent SDs below 5.

So hats off to @WhereNow&How recommending the luna elir3 for a long range illuminator.....no moon only starlight engaging ipsc steel with a pvs27-30 at 1k was too easy and rediculously clear from standing off the tripod....and shout out to @Lowdown3 for quick and awesome purchase.

The luna would easily light it up to 1250-1500 I think no issue maybe father if we had time to keep backing up past 1k.

No through scope pics because it was caf out there last night and everyone was shaking too bad to get clear pics haha

But the results are in 4-5 of the body shots were at 1k. Headshots were from closer

I just got a Luna Elir3 myself and I can say it's a legit piece of kit!!!
