Didn't take much more than half an hour with a dowel and some 80 grit to get it to fit with minimal clearance, then cleaned it up with some 180, and first coat of new satin clear is drying as we speak.

Just got my stock in for my 12FV I got for 320 after tax, before 100$ rebate. It shot amazing with the tupperware stock, but would throw one out of five almost every time I had a one hole group going and had to adjust the stock position in the bags.
22-250 1-12" twist, Bushnell Engage 6-18x50...
I used the 200 grain in 30-06 for my moose, we recovered the bullet due to a longer shot, looks just like every other recovered Accubond. No picture, my father has it at his place. You'll do great with an Accubond, don't worry.

I have a 9t 223 that shoots the 70gr RDF extremely well with AR Comp, easily under .5 MOA all day long.
I use CFE223 with 50gr Zmax, 40gr gr Varmageddon with IMR 4198, hell I've used Varmint powder with 52gr HPBT with great success. Now I've upgraded to the 22-250 and plan on using 60gr Vmax...
I want this bugger. There only large game animal I've missed, but it was last year in the morning and same day I got his big brother, big ten pointer at the same exact spot.

Last year's 180gr 338 cal Accubond. Recovered only because it was a quartering shot from a 338 Federal, not as much big oomph, but sure knocked the snot out of a 138" white tail. Here's a chunk of lung that came out the entrance hole!

7mm Rem Mag 150gr Swift Scirocco at 3100 with H4831 in my new Remage I built over the winter
338 Federal 180gr Accubond at 2735 in my Ruger M77, used it last year, does amazing
338 Federal 200gr Speer Hot Cor in my DPMS 338LR, moving about 2500fps but extremely light and mobile
Both 338 Feds...
Hey there,
Just picked up my new Savage 12 FV from Cabela's, broke it in a bit with factory PPU ammo. I think with good hand loads this rifle will shoot bug holes.
So tonight after doing the final clean down, I stuck my Hornady modified case in the chamber with a 50gr Zmax barely poking out...
Haha I know the feeling. My shooting buddies all scoff at me that I only shoot reloads, then they bring their one box of ammo for their hunting rifle, and I open up one of the many 100 round boxes I have for my hunting rigs and out shoot them just due to the fact I shoot my hunting ammo very...
It's been awhile since I've shot a moose but I wouldn't think twice about it. I don't know if it would exit but I think it would bust through the shoulder and scramble some soft tissue in the engine room, and probably exit the chest cavity.

Every large animal I've shot besides one has been with the Accubond, just heard reports the new ones are a bit soft for the closer shots. My rifle now shoots a zeroed 150 Swift 1.5" high and my ABLR are dead center. Doesn't get much better than that

Went through a milk jug, Arizona tea jug sideways, 40lb kitty litter bucket and punctured into the second 40 lbs bucket. That's all at 50 yards. Should work great no matter the distance.

So this morning I went out with a random load for the 7RM, 68.0gr Retumbo with the 175 LRAB, max on Hodgdon site for the Partition at around 50k CUP, so I felt comfortable starting there. Norma brass, 0.015" off the lands. Only shot three rounds, all over the magnetospeed for 2915 with an es of...
Hey there,
Just wondering if anyone could run a look at the 338 Federal in quick load for me?
Starline brass, internal capacity of 54.5gr H2O
200 gr Speer Hot Cor
2.810"
Not sure on primers yet
Fired from a 20" barrel.
Looking at H335 vs AR Comp primarily. H335 is my go to for my bolt with...
I've got a box of ELD-X and two boxes of ABLR, all in 175 gr flavor. Got six boxes of 150gr Swift Scirocco II's and they shoot half MOA, so I never got to test the ABs.

Safety issues arise when you shove the bullet into the lands. It sounds like you may load long for one rifle since you single fed for the Varget load, so why not seat out a bit further for the 4064? Usually the advice on this forum is pretty solid, haven't been lead astray yet.
As a side note...
I shoot the 338-06 and the 225 NAB, it's accurate as can be for what it is. Used RL17 and can move those suckers right up near 338 WM speeds. Haven't taken any game with it yet, but will eventually. It's a great round though!

47.8 is my max, but damn isn't it moving. I got a faint extraction mark there and my velocity was much higher than predicted @ 2755. I loaded for flat spot, starting 47.6 to 49.0. only shot the first two. Going to do load devolvement with 47.5 and adjust COAL to find my load. Same 100 yard POI...
