Got to agree with BSA. Shoot 180s in 30 cal rifles

Mine likes a stiff charge of R19 and 225 gn Hornadys


Mine likes R19 maxed out too with the 225's but it seems to kick harder than my 250 gr. load.......sure is an accurate combo in my 338 though...and that 225 interlock is a tough bullet too. That's my second choice load but it sure is a dandy...Like I said, many guys around here (my uncle included) use the 210 partition....I guess that's the real beauty of the 338, so many bullets work so well in it that you could pick just about any and get the job done...Really just depends on how much you are willing to spend..
