....for the .375 H&H and the .338 Win. Magnum? I have both calibers, and will eventually sell off one of them. I would like to make them as versatile as possible; I've done a lot of cast bullet testing with the .338 and so far have come up empty with an accurate load.
I've messed around with a small supply of cast bullets I received for the .375, but again nothing that is very accurate.
The bullets I am shooting out of the .338 are LEE's 220 grain RN with GC; I don't have a particular weight/style yet for the .375 (I'm just buying small amounts on line from different dealers to experiment with), so bullet weight/style doesn't matter to me much in this caliber at this particular time......as long as it is accurate, I don't care.
What I would like is a load that uses rifle powder; I've tried pretty much all the pistol powders so far, and nothing really stands out. I've tried trail boss in ALL my rifles, and for me it's been a miserable failure, accuracy-wise. I have some a very accurate load in my .30/30 using IMR 30/31, accurate loads in my .35 Remington using H4895 & IMR4320, and an accurate .30-06 load using IMR3031 & IMR4064. I have a good variation of powders on hand in addition to the above mentioned.
Anyone got a tack driver cast bullet load out there in these calibers? I'm looking for a load that I can use to punch paper, hunt whitetail deer/hog with, and not bruise the crap out of my shoulder.......
Thanks !
