The PDF in that link is mandatory reading for 338LM shooters. Unfortunately, I'm going to have to fold early due to my Sako's 1:12 twist, but thanks for the link. It seems that people shooting even the 1:10s will have some internal debating to do.

I guess it's about time to ask George at GAP for a new Bartlein's barrel with a faster twist rate than the 1:10".... The question is do I have to sell one of my kidneys to afford them. LOL

I just ordered some of these bullets today. Does anybody have some load information that they would be willing to share for 338 LM? I

Thanks

You can get them at sinclair. They are the only place you can get them right now. My sweet wife bought them for me for an early fathers day present.

Correct, I called the number that is given in the video on the website for Berger and that puts you in touch with the "Berger Bullet Tech Line" which is actually handled by Sinclare. Being that I already had an account with Sinclare they were able to take my oder at that very moment. If I reacall correctly is was $89 for 100 bullets. I really waiting for the VLD to come out (BC of .910) but I will play with the hybrid for now.

I just read this link. Seems those of us with a 1:10 twist barrel gotta keep our shots to under a mile.Bummer!

Come on .338 Berger VLD! Of course I'll probably need a 1-8' twist for it...
