Long action

[crnkin]

then we may as well go .260ai and save tedious case shortning then forming. internet experts like crankn will struggle...

I always struggle, especially around you...

Are we talking shooting or in bed?

[sneeze]

I always struggle,

Thats the way it seems

Can we use Hornady Superperformance powder?

This is a seriously interesting read ..........http://www.hornady.com/assets/files/...technology.pdf

[Spanners]

Can use any powder

If your looking at something in a short action to stop most things in there tracks up close that is short and very handy, what about a 416-300 saum shooting a 300gr-350gr Barnes TX

That would need a great suppressor or muzzle brake........recoil

300 saum with 208 amax would be ok in a SA

338 wsm with 200gr sst would be my pick
20inch suppressed

Built one years ago, identical performance to a 338 WM I had at the same time

I like the idea of basing it on easy to get donor brass such as 308. But I have a thing for double rifles so a slight taper with little or no neck. Something that uses lotsa lead and goes BOOOM instead of Bang.....Neck the case out instead of in, go slower (ish) and bigger with the projectile. Think 45/08 (or 45 /06 for that matter) Or 9mm x39 for shits and giggles........

I had a 338wsm that blew the guts out of a McMillan stock. 250gr Sierra's at 2680fps

I like the sound of the 338WSM and have been thinking about building one, should go well on a short barrel (maybe 18") and be an efficient and easy to make round. Would be an awesome bush gun for the roar and still be capable of some down range punch too!
