.338 Lapua Load Recipe

[jarhead1104]

Just aquired a Savage .338 Lapua and curious to hear from those who reload for this caliber. I am leaning more towards the 300 grain bullets. Would like to hear about accurate loads from anyone willing to share.

Thanks,
Dan

300gr SMK's 91gr of H-1000 fed match mag primer .003 from the lands, Lapua brass is a must.......unless u like tapping on your bolt with a mallet... which gun do you have long range hunter , FCP-HS or BA

 

[people]

Lapua brass, CCI LR mag primers, almost a full load of H1000, topped off with a 300gr SMK coated in HBN.
Many have stated they use this load.

Berger 300gr Hybrid Tactical, Reloader 25 - 90.2 gr, Fed Magnum primers, v v accuaret in my DTA SRS but every rifle likes whatever it likes. You will have to experiment to see what that is. ALWAYS start low and work up slowly.

My 110ba likes 91gr h1000 fed 215 mag primmers lapua brass seated .010 off lands with 300 berger hy. alot

My savage 110 FCP likes Norma case with Fed. 215M primers with 87.0 grains of reloader 25 and a 300gr matchking loaded to mag length. Got some lapua brass and reloader 33 to try this spring.

300 gr OTM's, 92.8Gns H1000, Fed 215M, 3.90'' COAL, 2750fps out of a 26'' Rock barrel, sub MOA to 1800 yards.

89g N570 or 89g H1000 , naked lapua scenar 300g. , wolf primers, seating depth and load in your FCP WILL VARY for your rifle but in my 110 HSFCP .010 off the lands is still way below mag length with the Lapua Scenar ( no damaged points if you load your mag and shoot from it ) and very curate in my rifle. Gets me 2750 average. Low es and sd. Barrel is taking some time to break in but shooting better after 50 rounds, and I expect it to get even better in another 50.

Good luck!

P.s. LAPUA BRASS.

N570 is correct, thanks for the callout!

93.5g Retumbo and 300 Berger Hybrid match COAL 3.75, 97.5 RL 33 and same bullet, both loads give 2819 fps. Anyone have loads for the 285 Hornady using RL 33?

 

[Desert Fox]

Reloader 25, Retumbo and H-1000, not necessarily in that order. Take your pick.

Mine is Ackleyrize so I can stuff 95 grains of Retumbo on it to propel the 300 grain SMK at around 2900 fps.

89g N550

P.s. LAPUA BRASS.

Maybe N 560?
