Love your vids! .338 Win Mag is a truly excellent hunting caliber. It’s a very well balanced cartridge that is both powerful and manageable even without a suppressor or muzzle brake. It is a very easy cartridge to handload and works very well with a wide variety of powders and bullets. I personally like the 210 and 225 partitions. You won’t have to give as many beans for the ammo you load yourself. I can’t imagine paying those prices for .338 Win Mag ammo these ammo companies need to quit raising prices so much. Go thump you some hogs with that gun, it’s great fun!
I used to have a .338 Win. mag. and I did load my own ammo. It is a great rifle and the two elk I shot with it went down on the spot. I did however trade it off because I could get the same results with my 35 Whelen and a 225 grain bullet and use 20 grains less powder, that's enough powder to also load a .223 round.
My dad had a rifle customized in 338 win mag before I was born. I have it now and some old ammo boxes. Some of those boxes I bought 20 years ago. I thought it was rough back then paying around $35 for a box of 20. Now I'm glad that I got into reloading.
Exactly.. if you can even find it on the shelf now it’s at least $80 for a box. Not as bad as the large nosler calibers or the Remington ultra magnums. But still a hefty price
I lived in Alaska for 40 years and hunted with a Ruger Mdl 77 .338WM for 25+ years (or a .30-06 depending on target spieces). I handloaded my ammo for all of my cartridge choices, the .338 and '06 were the easiest in that respect given the variety of powder and projectile choices available, all of my rifles had from the factory barrels and triggers, primarily Ruger and Mauser (CZ). With patience and attention to detail, as everyone should practice when handloading, gave me excellent results. I was able to get consistent sub-MOA groups and on the good days, sub- 3/4" groups even with a Leupold VX-5 1-5x24 HVY DPX scope, no recoil compensation and from a sand bag rest. Fortunately for my pocket book my .338 will shoot the Hornady Interlock 225gn to the same POI as the Nosler Partition 225gn bullet with the same powder charge of Reloader 22, both bullets performed excellently on moose and caribou. The .338WM is a very impressive cartridge.
Adam , I wasn't surprised that Remington Core Lok performed nicely. But I was surprised that Federal fusion printed a poor group. Norma is Perfection . Great shooting and sharing your videos.
Always a pleasure. I do not have any experience with the .338 however it is becoming a must have to the collection list. Always wishing you the best. :)
Lots o fun what a beast as for the stock I have seen that before in Texas my friend left his rifle in window rack in his pick up all summer it worped the stock like you're but worse and lens caps were deformed too lesson don't leave baby's in the hot car👍👍
I had the same issue with a hogue stock on my M77 mark 2 338 win mag. I put some sandpaper on a piece of broomstick and sanded it until it quit touching and it definitely helped.
I realize your video is tailored to (mostly) non-reloaders, but there are usually some hidden gems (tips, thoughts, etc.) included. I particularly enjoyed seeing the supressor in action. One of the several benefits for doing so is cost savings. The main for me is the accuracy a hand loader can develop, matching all components to create a round that is capable of printing 1/2" to 3/4" groups at 200 yards.
My Savage Hog hunter 338WM used to shoot groups that looked like the Federal ammo groups you shot. All brands were about the same, i tried 3 or 4 brands and some reloads. I took mine to a gunsmith and was told it was the synthetic stock flexing under recoil- some $$ later and i now have a Boyds laminate and bedding and it shoots 1in or better if i do my part- it still prefers flat based bullets over boattails for some reason.
I'm going to spend the next 10 minutes commenting and liking as many videos of yours as possible, with 1 request, please do get a 375 H&H for review and ammo test please!
Great video! Before ya go sanding on that stock you might want to try a heat gun and tweak it slightly. That might be all you need to leave that barrel free floating to eliminate any doubts about its grouping.
That's because your ammo is trucked to the port. Then shipped by barge or cargo ship to Hawaii. We have a similar problem here in Alaska, our ammo has to come by barge and then be trucked all over the state. Some kind of problem ground shipping it through Canada.
Looked good, square, trigger squeeze, couldn't tell on breathing, still was hitting you pretty hard even with the can. You're rifle rest was moving pretty good and the barrel was jumping pretty good. Might sandbag your rest, I know the LR instructor's teach it, sometimes you just got to hold that gun down till the bullet leaves the barrel. I'm just throwing ideas outthere. People, reload if you're not already. Lee has a reloader that fits in your hands for around hundred. Any reloader is better than no reloader, you will need it in the future. Follow instructions, double check everything. Good video, glad you're shooting that cannon and not me lol.
Like the video. And the rifle. Not much need for that particular caliber here, unless you’re chasing buffalo, scrub bulls and the like. Doesn’t matter; looks like a load of fun. Cheers from Down Under.
I used to load 275 gem Speers in my Dads 338. Recoil would really get your attention in a light Browning Abolt. He made me sight it in! Claimed he never felt the recoil when shooting at game. Of course he only had to fire one shot!😂
I would like to see a paper plate test done with this caliber done with this caliber 300 win mag and 338 Lapua to that would be a cool video you put in all three of them head-to-head
@WHOTEEWHO I'll bet you do! I won one back in 1988 and let it go simply because even back then I couldn't afford to shoot it! Not a win. mag. But .338 lapua. It was fine!!
Adam when shooting copper projectiles make sure you clean the fouling out first then try. Most solid copper projectiles don't like to shoot over existing fouling. Might be worth a try before you shoot those copper expanding Federals again
I'm seeing some different neck lengths on the still shot of the boo' lots .my dad was a reloader of '06 for a M1 , he wrote everything down . Good info.
The vertical stringing is a sign of a barrel harmonics issue. No doubt stock rubbing on the barrel is effecting group size. If it were mine, I'd replace the stock with a McMillan or something similar....something that has bedding blocks.
I would cautiously exam all the stock points along the barrell channel to make sure it is trul free floated. I don't know what bedding material is used now, but maybe cast the action into the recoil lung with some minor fitting. The rifle is showing you it will shoot due to the accuracy of the Remington and Orx ammo. Regarding those two: your rifle throat may like less than full diamater bullets traveling through for any maximum period of time. Skinner pointed bullets leading the way through the throat set up the right harmonics, and not create additional pressure at the tip of the chamber. Using these two characteristic on that particular rifle, would be all I'd do; I bet it becomes a near tack drivier.
It would really be informative to include with the manufacturer and projectile weight to include the cost ($) per round. That way viewers can decide if an improvement in group size is worth the cost difference. Keep up the good work, always look forward to see what you are going to do next!
@@WHOTEEWHO Right, but just for a relative point in time comparison if you're actually buying it versus getting it donated or sponsored . Catch you on the next video!
My First and last hunting rifle Ruger m77mk2 338 win mag Burris full field 3x9 Replaced wood stock with an HS precision. This rifle has never seen factory ammo I use 225 grn Hanaday interlock and load data on the bottle H4350. One cartridge to rule them all
I have a ruger m77 in 338 an abolt an xbolt and a tikka. Love the 338. The sst and eldx have grouped the best for me. The 338 will definitely let u know if u have a subpar scope on it 🤣
Instead of sanding the barrel channel epoxy bed the action, especial the recoil lug. Wrap the barrel in paper or tape to keep it centered in tge stock while the epoxy dries. Your groups should tighten up considerably
@@tacticalmattfoley yup. I suspect they recoil lug cutout in the stock is crooked. Had the same thing with a savage. Bedding it helped a lot but I pit it in an mdt xrs chassis eventually
I wonder if your barrel is getting fouled. I had a Remington 270 WSM that would shoot pretty decent (1.25" groups at 100) with my hand loads. After about 15 shots the groups would really start going to crap. Like 4-6" groups. Somebody suggested running a bore snake through it every 10 shots, and like magic the accuracy returned. I eventually had that gun rebarreled by Pac-nor and now it's a bad day if my groups aren't in the .2s or .3s. I also think the harder recoiling guns will exploit any weakness in your rifle, your shooting form, or your mental focus. But it sure is sweet when you get a nice tight group with a big bore!
I have never had good luck with Federal centerfire ammo. I use their cases and primers when reloading but no loaded ammo. I've kinda worried as the own remington and produce the ammo hopefully to the same specs.
.338 is my absolute favorite. I had a to sell mine to cover some of my ex's bad debt. Hopefully someday I will be able to find another ruger to call mine.
I believe what you will find is the heaviest recoil round, vs the weight of your gun affects group size especially with a dead stop shooting rest. It causes the gun to jump more. So lowest recoil May improve groups on a large caliber gun.
I'll be curious to see how this shoots after you get the barrel truly free floating. I'm also curious about what you have your trigger pull weight set at. It's also like you say there's so many factors that go into shooting a good group.
I would like to see is all different manufactures of ammo at the same grain. My .338 shoots 225 grain Winchester soft points the best. I get 3/4” groups all day long as long as I give the barrel a break after each group. Oh ya. No supppressor
It would be interesting if you could try a few loadings of your own as you got a little bit of brass you could play with,,i believe you will even get better and down to less than 1/2 moa to sub moa ,i love the Rifle ,i would love to see it in a better stock one day ,not sure if MDT do one for that ,maybe they do ,,i love MDT STOCKS just top quality and they probably last a few generations of family ,yep still nice rifle all the same .
After fixing your stock you might wish to try the two Federal loads again. The Fusions showed vertical stringing which could have been because of the bedding. I still dig your 338 RPM though, that's a tack driver!
I built one and dumped it! Then built a 340 Weatherby Magnum. No comparison. The 340 will push a 225 Barnes TTSX load with Superformance, Federal 215 at 3,155 FPS.
Recoil = Accuracy It's why I use 350 Legend, 243, 6.5 Creedmoor. Drops everything I hunt for 30 cents on the dollar to those bullets. I also cloverleaf those rounds. Hit the pimple on a fly that's sitting on the butt of a liberal... Thks WTW
I had a Savage .223 and had the same type of problems. The man I sold it to has the same problems also. Could you try a different brand of rifle to verify the problem is the ammo not the Manufacturer?
Try the Winchester they shoot tight groups out of my 06 My buddies had the same results all different guns all at 100 yards TRY THEM. OUT & LET ME KNOW WHAT U THINK
My Ruger American ranch 7.62x39 barrel touch’s just like yours. I’ve heard a lot of them do. Don’t know why with that bedding system. That’s overkill for a deer!
Not surprised that you got a good group from the Norma, that company has a great reputation. Shifting topics the .300 Norma magnum has great long range accuracy, is this round on your list?
I noticed something that could be making a small difference in your accuracy. When you start out, your sled is way up front on the table. By your third shot it’s back 6” from where you started. Once or twice you moved it forward on the table on the third shot and got better accuracy. You’re changing your eye relief and shouldering the rifle lower on the third shot. Rewind the video and you’ll see what I’m talking about
Does ruger use a recoil lug like a remington? My remington 700 is off center in the stock due to the recoil lug being off center. Needs barrel loosened and lug recentered in the synthetic stock….

Thank God for being able to reload.. Thanx buddy👍
$125 a box of 20 in Hawaii for the cheap stuff 💸💸💸💸💸😬

I think a 300 Weatherby will do the same job. Hand loader with some hot loads. But thanks for insight on the 338. Love your videos. Keep it up 🎉
338 win mag will give you about half the recoil your “hot “ weatherby will.
Sweet video! Order you a sweet wood stock from Boyd’s guns stocks for that 338 👍🏼

I think it is the rate of twist thing with the copper solids. But i think you have a winner.

Just ordered a Banish 46 can. Now just gotta wait 9 months to use it
Love my .338 WM it can shoot a 3 shot group you can cover with a quarter at 200 yds ...... just have to play with some loads
It would be interesting if you could try a few loadings of your own as you got a little bit of brass you could play with,,i believe you will even get better and down to less than 1/2 moa to sub moa ,i love the Rifle ,i would love to see it in a better stock one day ,not sure if MDT do one for that ,maybe they do ,,i love MDT STOCKS just top quality and they probably last a few generations of family ,yep still nice rifle all the same .
After fixing your stock you might wish to try the two Federal loads again. The Fusions showed vertical stringing which could have been because of the bedding. I still dig your 338 RPM though, that's a tack driver!
LOVE the RPM
I built one and dumped it! Then built a 340 Weatherby Magnum. No comparison. The 340 will push a 225 Barnes TTSX load with Superformance, Federal 215 at 3,155 FPS.
Wicked rifle , got some kick
👍😊🎯 what is that in the stock , sticker or paint?
Big holes and a lot of recoil. Beast of round.
Recoil = Accuracy
It's why I use 350 Legend, 243, 6.5 Creedmoor. Drops everything I hunt for 30 cents on the dollar to those bullets. I also cloverleaf those rounds. Hit the pimple on a fly that's sitting on the butt of a liberal...
Thks WTW
When will you bring out the 416 h&h or the Ruger 416 mag or the 460 weatherby? Good video.
Those are both very expensive
I had a Savage .223 and had the same type of problems. The man I sold it to has the same problems also. Could you try a different brand of rifle to verify the problem is the ammo not the Manufacturer?
Try the Winchester they shoot tight groups out of my 06 My buddies had the same results all different guns all at 100 yards TRY THEM. OUT & LET ME KNOW WHAT U THINK
Love your video what the price on that scope. Great job.
Depends where u go, but that scope 600 beans give or take
Looks like the Norma groups best
WTW, my Sako 338 WM shots the best groups with Barnes TTSX 225gr and Nosler ETip 225 gr.
That hammer could definitely use a more rigid stock. I really wish they still made them.
That’s one big KAPOW!
💪💪💥💥💥
I’d love one but at $100 + a box I’ll pass….I’m a 223 or 308 ATM kinda guy just sayin lol
$$$
Next time , can you use a heat gun to test temperature of the rifle?
My Ruger American ranch 7.62x39 barrel touch’s just like yours. I’ve heard a lot of them do. Don’t know why with that bedding system. That’s overkill for a deer!
A two-for-one shot could be done with that powerful of a cartridge if a couple deer were properly lined up. 🦌
Does it kill them too dead, I've shot a lot with mine, didn't seem to be extra dead
Not surprised that you got a good group from the Norma, that company has a great reputation. Shifting topics the .300 Norma magnum has great long range accuracy, is this round on your list?
I'd love too, but a rifle in 300 norma is extremely expensive
I noticed something that could be making a small difference in your accuracy. When you start out, your sled is way up front on the table. By your third shot it’s back 6” from where you started.

Does ruger use a recoil lug like a remington? My remington 700 is off center in the stock due to the recoil lug being off center. Needs barrel loosened and lug recentered in the synthetic stock….
If it helps put food on the table, then it's a damn fine rifle in my eyes.
What.....no 300 grainers , Ouch, painful memories.
to choose between 338wm or 358nm e as to choose between 22lr and 22wm! always 358nm!
Do a milkjug test on the corelokt vs the the norma oryx
We need some 8.6 blackout videos!!!
Did some already. Hopefully can do more
I think the 225 grain Remington core lokt did the best in that gun
I plan to get a 338 win mag when I can.
Did you trade your Go Wild, model for the American Alaskan,??:)
No
