Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Express Rifles and Big Bores Only 275g 338 speers

WOW>> O mY >> are they as scars as Hens Teeth !!>> I have had people trading their new born {Joke}>> For Them!! but 2 will get them !!>>for free ! PS in their time they where Dirt cheap and Now they are gold!!

I have some.
I'd trade for Nosler 250 grain 9.3MM Accu Bonds.

PM is you'd be interested.

Its very Intro to Me about the 275g speer bullet in the 338! at one time they where very cheap>did I say cheap? did they not sell? or did everyone shoot them till was no more?? I have a bulk of them because they where so cheap for a bullet like that!! and Now>everyone wants them.

ttt

So were they the heavy jacket ones from Elmers day or are they the newer ones with the .026" jackets? MB

Solids or softs? The tungsten solids were really great solids.

If I wanted to use a 275 grain bullet,it would be a Swift A-Frame.

Exactly--if I wanted to.

Don't see any reason to use anything heavier than around 225 grains in the .338 Winchester these days. (The .338 Lapua is another story.)

Have both kinds of 275 Speers in my collection, the early heavy-jacket and later not-so-heavy. Have been meaning for years to shoot both side-by-side into test media, but somehow testing bullets that are almost unobtainium never makes it to the head of the to-do list--especially when available (and better) bullets work so well.

Interesting...
I got some a couple boxes of 275 speer 338
225 gr. Grand slams,
Nosler 210 Partition
and 225 Hornady Spire pts.
I would trade for something of value....
and brass

Got a bunch of reloading stuff from a widow's sale and I don't own a .338

I have a box full somewhere.

If it ever floats to the top I should sell them.

I have one box Speer Tungsten solids if anyone interested.

I have two boxes of Hornady .338" 250 grain solids.


250 grain solid on left and 250 grain Nosler Partition on right.


Not for sale.

The 275’s shot clover leafs out of my old model 70....
Never did shoot anything with them though and the recoil was right up there!
I finally settled on the Hornady 225 for all my.338 needs.

Its a real shame that speer made a cheap but very good 338g 275 bullet and as I take it no one was very intro about them and never bought Too much of them!! I have a ton of them because I went to people that where selling out and they where just THERE!! and NOW THEY ARE SCARCE AS HEN TEETH>>WHY DID THE CHICKEN CROSS THE ROAD? TO GET A 275ger

If I wanted to use a 275 grain bullet,it would be a Swift A-Frame.>>MMM>>YA>> I like that>> you have no Choice!>>luv the Double talk that >>That's my bullet>>No 275g speers I take too look down your nose at them!Too bad you can look at what you don't have all you want!!

Its very into about choice?!?!>> just like they screwed the hole shooting village about weatherby brass!!! there was Pmc>Federal that made good cheap weth brass for the public!! They>> The man Destroyed this brass {I was lucky to buy a SH$T of it for next to nothing} Now did you see what weth brass is going for?? MM>><just like you stupid A$$>>I rather have a 275ger swift !! YA!! Boy did the man put a screw to your HEADD>>EH! I would like to see A frame 275 go against a 275 speer ?? I take it I would have to give a 275ger speer for the test because it seems no one has them anymore!!

EH>nice pics>> Not very impressed>> you want a pic of 300 275gers 338 and that's just a start??? why don't you just get off your self>> I have a box full somewhere.>>LUV IT!!

Its very intro as I said before the 338 was made to shoot a 250ger as its meat and potato , then we would go up to a 275, and down to a 225. But the shooting world has DEMASCULATED the 338 as to shoot 185gers!! MMM

If you want,I can post up some pics of 210 grain NP's?

Here's an cow elkI killed with 210 grain NP's?

Very Intro EH>>your more stupid then I thought!>>you do not understand the 338 at ALL>> a 22 long can kill>> you should go to youtube if they show it anymore one shot one kill on a 600 pound steer to the head! anything can Kill! >Idiot!! but why shoot a 185>200 grainer 338? when most will agree AA>200ger 300 weth !

Cause the 210 grain NP's are what I have.

I use 180 grain NP's in my .300 Wby.
Even killed a deer with them.




Please post a picture of something you killed with the 275 grain .338" Speers.

MM>that's the big stuff!>Good for You!>>Enjoy I have to beat this stuff out of my garden with a stick>>and your proud to hunt it??Very intro!

Let's see pictures of the elk in your garden,please.

He beats those of his front porch with a broom.

Nice pics there elk.. Those Wthy's are real hammers.. Haven't used my .300 in a while, took an antelope with the .340 couple years ago...

Your a Joke EH>> Enjoy!

A ground squirrel is bigger than anything you’ve shown.

I quite certain if anyone walks up to me and says "that's very intro" I'm going to punch em in the teeth.

Flattery will get you nowhere.

.460 Wby. IIRC the distance was about 40 yards.


Exit from a 500 grain .458" Hornady DGX.


Entrance...

Thanks WCH.

Yes they are.

A well loaded early pre-64 M-70 Super Grade 300 H&H will do most anything with 180-200 gr Nosler P. I have used 275 gr Speers in another Model 70-traded those 275s off for some Nosler 250 gr
Swift A-Frames and Woodleighs are also the answer.

For killing big moose in AK, try a 348 Ackley with 270 Hawk bullets -kills them and flattens them within 6 feet. Using iron sights Lyman 48 on a Winchester Model 71. Get to creep up on em.
Just like grizzlies.

My pre'64 M/70 .338 shot the Speer 275gr. bullet into little cloverleaf groups. I shot a mulie buck behind the ear at 60yds. with one of those bullets, result was an instantaneous lobotomy and DRT.

As GS >>My pre'64 M/70 .338 shot the Speer 275gr. bullet into little cloverleaf groups>>MMMM >> why does the 338ger shoot so well because the 338 luvs long bullets !! you have the stupids like Eh>> that can not understand at all about the 338 and heavy metal >>they all bought into the garbage juice of lighter bullets and hev caliber guns For Eh>shoot your 100 pound wet deer with a 243 and don't mouth off about the 338 win mag because I see you have drank the rags waters about the 338!! maybe you should take a ride on some heavy metal of the 338! https://youtu.be/uyDmiaGUxO0 Enjoy If you can find some!!

Eh>>>MMM how stupid you are!!

Flattery will get you nowhere.

I’ve never shot any game with my 338’s except 250 grain Nosler Partitions. I noticed this last week that I had some loads from the 80’s and my brother had some loads from the 90’s all 250 grain Partitions. They were loaded with 3100 - sorta like old H4831, I think.
We pulled all the bullets from those loads and threw the powder away. I have a new box of 250 Partition bullets. Comparing the three vintages, they are different. I see in another thread MD mentioned Nosler improving their bullets as time passes.

I don’t mind the kick that much with 250’s, but what the hey. My brother and I are going moose hunting this fall, ya hoo! A first for both of us.He doesn’t like the kick he gets out of his Browning 338 with the 250’s. So... since I’m taking my 338 Win Model 70 Classic as a back up rifle. (This is my third 338 I’ve owned.) It didn’t group the 250’s as well as the other two 338’s I’ve owned. But I have only shot the rifle a few times. Per recommendations from a writer I respect, We are going to try 210 grain Nosler Partitions, if we can get the two rifles to shoot them well. Brother had tried getting a mono lighter bullet to shoot and hasn’t had much luck with accuracy: 4”+ @100 yards.
There’s still six foot snow drifts in my shooting range so testing will wait for me.
As far as 275 grain Speer bullets, I have not had any issues with Speer hot core flat base bullets. I’d bet that for a cup and core bullet they’d be one of the better ones.

Just a suggestion, instead of arguing about who has the shiniest penny, why not stack dry paper and test the bullets???

I admit it’s tough for me to use anything but 250 grain Partitions, especially on perhaps the only moose hunt I’ll be on. It’s tough to change, especially if what you’ve been using works very well.

"Very intro".

Can someone help me out and explain to me what in the world this means?

I just know I am missing out on some serious education here...

It’s ok no normal English speaking person can understand him. I’m still waiting on my “sample” bullets he was going to send months ago.

275????

If I need the 338 we're going......

Your going to make the OP’s head explode he thought he had the biggest rarest bullet on the planet.

I've got a couple of boxes of each................

Tried the Barnes-X bullet, rifle couldn't keep them on a 9" pie plate....

But these 'originals'............ it's like they're laser guided!
