If you are bored read this thread from the start.

My how things have changed........seems so long ago....

Now with the right powder 2950-3000fps is possible from a 30" 338 Edge, not sure about...

LOL :)

Lol you are getting better :thumbsup:

Agreed don't look through a S&B, IOR, Premier, MK4 or VX3/III & a NF because you might be disappointed with the glass & the max mag of 22.

But they work...

If I do I know from experience I will be wanting them :P happens every time...:oh noes:

Can Quentin get you some ?

If you want some I might be able to get some.

I would look at the 300 SMKs...

Go with the NF Red 5.5-22 x 56 & keep it forever :)

I've had a few boxs of the 285s for ages but never shot them.
They look very similar/the same as the 300 SMK, but a more open nose.
B Litz reckons .699 G1 & .358 G7, so pretty close to Hornadys...

Yep :)

LOL I have a few of its sisters :thumbsup:

Couple of weeks........are we there yet ?..........are we there yet ?.......:D

LOL not for a while though, as there is very little knowledge around :thumbsup:

Is it any wonder why ????

If in doubt you are in the right thread to discover why :)

Where are the recognised maximums ?
Who are the knowledgeable reloaders ?
Who decides if they are in fact knowledgable reloaders & not key board experts?
Who decides if it stacks up ?
Who...

Now that would be irresponsible :)

Remington brass, 700 action, 338 Gen 1 or 2

The trouble is as soon as some one posts some interesting stuff he gets shot down IF he is on the wrong side of the "fence"

Especially if some one else can't acheive that speed, therefore...

The local Edge was using 2217 inside the usual weights around 2930 fps from memory over the 35P

It has recently been sold, it was another members not mine, used my reamer though.
