I bought a 338fed because I live in Calif and must use non-lead bullets. I like it because it is like a 308win/30-06 when I use 165 or 185gr TTSX bullets, except it has more frontal area. I have taken several animals with my rifle and it has worked great and less recoil than my 338win mag...

I used it in both.

I have a 338Fed rifle and like it. I shoot Barnes bullets since I am stuck in Calif and it works just great.

I have loaded the 200gr HP from Nosler and it has worked well on deer and black bear for me

Swift bullets are great. Shoot them in my 257R, 25-06, 257W, 6.5X55,264win mag, 6.5X300W, 338Win mag. To be honest I have only used Barns es bullets in my 7-08 and 338 Fed. Killed a bunch of game in the USA (5-6 states) and in Africa PG on 2 trips. One for 21days and another for 1 month. Never...

they need bullet jump for accuracy. I had trouble with the Sirocco bullets and called swift. They said seat them deeper. Sure enough the shot great with a lot of jump.

a vote for 125gr PAR bullets.

I have been on this site for quite some time. I now have terminal cancer--this is not made up! I had a heart problem but they operated and now I am ok there. I am not a scammer. I have already sold some rifles (old mil), some ammo and dies to people I know. I have a long list of brass, bullets...

the Lyman manual is very good. But do not use it for Barnes or Swift bullets unless they are listed.

The 125gr PAR bullet works well. I use 65gr of IMR4831 for 3422FPS in my rifle.

very nice cat

I have used the 200gr HP from Nosler to take a couple. one shot and down.

I do not crimp my loads and have never had a problem.

Any info on hunting Area 61 if I get drawn?? Thanks for any help. The last time I was in that area was in the 1970's.

just use the 150gr PAR bullet for both. Better yet use the 165gr Swift A-Frame or 150gr Swift Sirocco.

I may be able to help you on the 257R brass if you want to buy

thanks

I have a new never used set of small base5.7X28FN dies including shell holder in the bag. Price $50 plus USPS shipping.

I have done a lot of work with my 257R. I prefer 120gr Swift A-Frame or Nosler PAR if you cannot find the swift bullets. Also the 80gr TTSX bullets work well. For squirrels and other small game a cup-n-core 87gr will do and be much cheaper.
