Best 338LM load for SW Florida

[Opie98b]

Low elevation, 91% humidity, 95 degrees. Wtf? Any suggestions? Besides moving.

 

[Opie98b]

Still need help here.

You need a better question. SW Fla. requires no unusual loading methods, even for a .338LM.

Just work up a load and find what works best for you. What bullets and powder, primers you using?

Holy crap that's wet and hot. I bet bullets leave a vapor trail! Nice tracer!

I am using 82.7g of 4831sc with Fed 215m and 300 SMK's. I average mid to upper 2700's.

I've been using 83gr of n170 powder, lapua 300gr HPBT scenar, CCI no. 250 primers. I think they're going about 2500.

 

[Opie98b]

And yes. Badass vapor trail and the bullet sounds like a freight train. I love this round.

I'm running Hornady 285's with 91.5 grains H1000, 215 match primers. SW FL.

I live in the panhandle. My rifle loves 93.5 gr's of retumbo pushing 285's with 215 primers. I get sub-moa groups at 1k. I used the same load at home in the dry Texas heat with equal results.
