.338 Norma Mag
Was requested to forward this! beerroger

Norma case, new
Ramshot Magnum from 90 to 97.5 grains
250 grain Accubond (BC .575)
WLRM primer
COAL 3.575" which is .030" off the rifling

Audette shot at 600 yards, slight L ---> R wind at times.
Velocity ranged from 2850 to 3020 at the top end.
No ejector plunger marks even at 97.5 grains and 3020 fps

Good accuracy node at 92.5 to 94 grains at around 2900 fps
About 1.5" of vertical for the 4 shot accuracy node. Will load
5 each of 92.5, 93, 93.5, 94 and shoot to see which is best.

Tell the guys that the mamma dove has finally hatched one of her
three eggs and to be careful not to use that target bay!


Old age is a high price to pay for maturity!!! Some never pay and some pay and never reap the reward. Wisdom comes with age! Sometimes age comes alone..
