338 LM 500-1000 yard load

[mr.big]

shooting bullets that cost 75 cents a piece with a BC of .800 at anything under 800 is a lot of wasted money,,

I am gonna start workup on a load for soft targets in the 400-1,000 yards ranges,,

I am gonna start off with the 225 Hornady SST ,if that doesnt work the 225 Sierra SBTGK.

any of yall that have always wanted to give long range shooting a try,,there are many options to get in the game off the shelf that really perform,,

It's worth every penny it's costing you, I can tell you really enjoy it. I'm having fun just reading your posts on it!

You'll need the faster burning powders and hotter primers to get accurate up closer

If I had somewhere to shoot that far,I would have had one a long time ago.

with the 300 Lapua Scenar and 89 grs H1000 with F215 primers in Lapua Brass it shoots well up close,,

I just figured I could get out cheaper with some other bullets in the 225 gr .550BC range for 500 yard shooting,

3 Scenars at 100

I don't know if your a accubond fan or not but I seem to have hit a sweet spot in my rifle with this load but I have only shot it to 600yds. It should give you a good jumping off point if you decide to shoot the Accubonds
