they're here!

[DrMike]

It certainly looks as if that particular bullet will be a hit in some circles.

 

[shoots_5]

According to the tracking number i got from midway, my box should be here tomorrow. If that's the case I will try and get some loaded up to test on Sunday if the weather holds up. If I do get out I'll try and get some video of the bullet testing for ya'll.

 

[SJB358]

I was going to order some today and they were out of stock already! They moved FAST!

 

[BK]

Would that be a sign I might be over the edge if I ordered some, but I don't have a .338 of any sort yet? :grin:

Nope, but you might as well order dies and brass at the same time! :twisted:

Then I'd end up having to buy five new rifles... RUM, Weatherby, Lapua, Federal, and build an Edge! :twisted:

Kurt,

Actually 6, there are 2 wby offerings. :mrgreen:

A serious rifle crank will sometimes buy components and dies long before buying a rifle. I speak from experience. :wink:

Exactly!! I have a set of 348 dies on my bench with no rifle in the safe!

 

[shoots_5]

Just an FYI, I contacted nosler about load data for the this bullet and they informed me it would be included in the box.

Oh, and BK, I'd be happy to load those up for you and test them out...you know just to make sure you didn't get a defective box.... :wink:

Yep, and I don't have a .280 yet (thought I did get two 7 RMs and a 7-08).

Wow, man, you'd sacrifice all that powder for me? :twisted:

(What color did we decide was for the sarcastic font?)

Looks as if we settled on purple (http://www.noslerreloading.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=18550). Sigh.

No real interest in the .338-378, Jim... or anything else on that hull. (The Rigby doesn't count... no belt. And no feelings of just having gone 15 rounds with Tyson.)

 

[Ridge_Runner]

well then you'd still hafta have a 338 snipe tac or allen mag built to partake in the complete 338 experience, imagine a 338 300 gr AccuBond at 3300 fps.

[BK]

Whoa there, guys! In order to complete my existing five-pac of common .338s, I need to buy, uh, five more guns! Don't be confusing me with more wildcats!

 

[nvbroncrider]

Well if you're gonna buy all of them might as well add a 338-06AI too!

 

[BK]

Actually, that one will probably be the first. I have an SS ADL .270 for a donor.

That would be a great combo! What a thumper!

My Pre-64 is being worked over as we speak no more .270!!

 

[shoots_5]

Got my box of bullets today in the mail! Thought I'd post up some pics for you all. I will likely make it out tomorrow to do some testing....more to come on that later.





Next to a 300gr SMK

Load data that was included in the box (was rather disappointed in the data provided considering they didn't include either Retumbo or H1000 for the Lapua Mag)


And the other side of the load data sheet
