What is case life like pushing 300s that fast?

To early to tell nut that won't be the accuracy load. That's pretty much full throttle

Devin:

Are there any plans in the "Works" to have brass ready to go?? Or will it be strictly fireforming of the Dakota round?

Also....talked to you about my rig ( a while back ) that currently has a long action from the company that starts with an "R".....30-06 bolt face. Would this round function in this action?? Obviously the bolt face would have to be opened up. Plans got put on the back burner when we had to do a bathroom remodel....but I'm trying to make a plan for a .338 conversion for my custom that I don't use.

Thanks for this exciting new round!

Any range reports?

I tried doing accuracy loads on Saturday but sheared my rear dove tail so I ordered a new base and heavy duty rings. I'll shoot again this weekend.

Wayne, I will probably offer hydro formed cases but not proper head stamp unless it really takes off. And yes this round would work perfect on your rifle too.

Say guys....Drove out to see this new round and visit with Sinman. I must admit this is a very nice round! Looks like it fits amazingly well in my Remington Long Action....but tailor made for the Savage long action. If you're even contemplating anything in .338...I would highly suggest giving Sinman a shout......he can hook you up with everything you need to get going with this new round.
