Home Forums Reloading Big Game Rifles 338 Winchester 210’s...

Went out and shot some .338 loads this morning, using 210gr Nosler Partitions.
Norma MRP was the most accurate today, also had the highest velocity. I won,t
give it to you as I believe it,s to hot. But it was over 3000 fps. SD was 6.9 for 5 shots.
One didn,t read. Actually had a 6 shot group. 5 of six shots were touching.

shot RL16 and got 2975fps SD 4.5 also very accurate.

had a box of Federal premium 210gr Nosler Partitions that I bought in 1999.
shot 4 shells and the average was 2868fps with SD of 4.6

I,m shooting a old Model M77 Ruger, with a very heavy trigger. got to do something about
that trigger. I got it used and until 3 weeks ago had only shot about 60 rounds thru it.
I don,t think the last owner shot it much either. I got it in trade for a 30/06 Ruger M77.
about 20 years ago.

I guess I,ll have to load the RL26 powder and try it.
