    338 load Data

    Hows it going guys, seems to be not much technical info flying around these days but got a new rifle coming and looking for load data or what has worked for you re 338 edge

    Thinking of starting with 2225 cci250's 300 berger rem brass.

    What case life have you been getting?

    Seating depth, jumps, es ect ect would be interesting/helpful

    Cheers
