What is your long range set up?

[Stefan]

Reloaders should be smart enough to know to reduce and work up very carefully while observing for signs of overpressure. It does give an idea of what people are trying and possible ranges but again loads should be worked UP to carefully!

Thank you, it weighs a ton and is not my hunting rig. You would like my .338 Lapua Sako TRG-42 with a S&B PMII with MTC turrets sitting in a Spuhr mount.

I've got a couple.

My favorite is a surgeon action with surgeon bottom metal with a 21" benchmark barrel chambered in 7mm-08 ackley McMillan hunter stock in mcwoody nightforce 3.5-15x50 mil reticle. In ultralight nightforce rings. It shoots the 140gn Barnes ttsx bullets over h4350 extremely well. I shot a five shot group that was 384 thousandths at 200 yds.

Another is a savage 111 I rebarrled with a shilen 30" barrel in 6.5-06 it's in a choate stock that I had my smith inlet to use the factory detachable mag. Timney trigger vortex viper 6.5-24 mil/mil

Another that I don't have a great pict of is a browning a bolt rebarrled and chambered in 7stw wearing kahles 3-9x42 glass. Shoots the 140gn Barnes ttsx ridiculously good over h4831sc

My newest is a nosler m48 patriot in 28 nosler talley ultralight rings and also wearing a kahles 3-9x42 been shooting the 175gn nosler lrab but have some Barnes ttsx amax and Bergers loaded I haven't had time to test yet. So far I'm really liking this rifle and cartridge.

How does that Nosler M48 Patriot shoot out of the box?

Mines a legitimate 1/2" @ 100yd gun. With some load development it's surely going to be a tack driver. I did have to send it back to nosler after I got it. Was blowing primers and having hard bolt lift. They lapped the chamber test fired it there and sent it back. I haven't shot that many rounds through mine yet only about 40. Accuracy has been excellent so far with minimal load development.

Cool... Wonder if with a little bit of trigger work and a bedding job if you could eek out some more accuracy...

300 RUM built on a Pierce Titanium aciotn, Proof barrel, Titanium Recoil Lug, Titanium Muzzle brake, McMillan Edge fill Game scout and Jewel trigger, currently has a Vortex Razor on it but have the new Vortex AMG on order for it. as it sits weighs 9.4 lbs with scope and bipod. Hoping new scope knocks a little over 1/2 a lb off it

Very nice! What length barrel? Hows the recoil? I am wanting to do a similar build but in 338 lapua improved... just didnt know if a 10 lb rifle would kick like a mule...
