    New 338-06 Test Load

    Sweet shooting!! I build my 338-06AI a few years back to shoot 225gr bullets. The AB's and TTSX shoot quite nicely...lol.

    338 06 and ????? Projectile

    I use 225gr AB's and TTSX's on my 338-06AI. A medium/hot load to fire-form brass with H414 powder. Shoots great groups for fire forming rounds. Reloads for the AI formed brass shoots a bit faster but really no improvements in tighter groups. Love this rifle.

    QL 338-06

    I use both the 225gr AB's and TTSX in my AI version with H414. I would like to build a light weight version off a Sako m75 with lightweight stock, with 22" #3 barrel fluted and shoot 185gr TTSX. Be a sweet mountain rifle.

    Moose bullet in 30 cal.

    Your 270 WSM with the 140gr AB's will do a great job on moose as well. (y) I have been very impressed with this caliber and bullet combo on big game. Not saying your 300WM wont work-its nice to have a backup rifle. The 300WM -that's my traditional moose camp rifle so it goes out every year...

    Moose bullet in 30 cal.

    Been using reloads of 180gr AB's in my 300WM since 2005 to hunt moose, elk, bear, deer in Alberta. Love the performance. Its my reloading bullet of choice in most of my hunting rifles. I have been shooting 180gr premium bullets in my Sako m75ss 300WM since new in 1997 -Factory loads in...

    270 WSM H1000 150 ABLR

    I was getting very close to 3300ft/s with 140gr AB's and Retumbo in my two 270WSM's. One rifle LOVED the Compressed load of 71.0grains. I am tempted to try the 1050's in my "new-to-me" Sako m75ss 270WSM that I bought couple years ago...never shot it yet, but I know my Tikka T3 LS 270WSM's shot...

    300 win mag loads plz

    Cant comment on RL25. My 300WM loves RL22 and 180gr AB's. My rifle (Sako m75ss) is 74.3gr and my buddy with the identical rifle is 75.0gr Never needed to try another powder (I have lots of different ones), just happy with the RL22 plus I cant seem to find the time to reload lately.

    338-06 Ackley for moose

    They were hard to find here in Canada at the time so I went with the AB's and TTSXs. I already love the AB's in my other calibers I reload for. (y)

    338-06 Ackley for moose

    YOur 185gr TTSX would be fine. I use 225gr Accubonds and TTSX's in my 338-06AI. I built the rifle to shoot the heavier bullets as I use the 180gr AB's in my 300WM. A 210 Swift Scirocco or TTSX or 200gr AB would be another good choice.

    Moose melt down

    Sorry to hear about the meat loss...that SUCKS !!! Happened to me a few years back. Lost lots of moose and elk burger / steaks and roasts PLUS some beef cuts when we butchered a steer and a couple of turkeys and some salmon/halibut fillets. Probably 300-400 pounds of meat. I was going to...

    Who makes a modern 6.5x55?

    I kick myself for not buying a mint Sako m75ss 6.5x55 I seen last year. Would of been great for the collection and a rifle for one of my boys.

    .300 Win

    IMO, 180gr bullet is the most ideal weight for the 300WM. I have been using RL 22 with 180gr AB's in my 300WM since 2005. Hunt from +25 C to -35C, no issues for me here in Alberta with temperature sensitivity that I have noticed at the range or the big game harvested....hard for them to tell...
