Thread: 338 Terminator

I built this a fair while ago now, its been sitting in the safe for far too long



It has a Defiance Ultralight action, Triggertech diamond, 28" Proof barrel in a Hi-Tech stock, with a Leupold VX5 3-15 x 56 scope



I went with the T4 brake to reduce as much recoil as possible, it only weighs 4.27 kgs, 9.4lbs so is quite the handful



I got some of the 267 Hammer Hunter Tipped to try as it hadn't really shot the conventional projectiles as good as I would like



Took it up to the range yesterday to try some loads & fluked this group at 200m



Took it back up this morning to see if I could repeat it with the same load, other than some shooter issues it shot extremely well given the conditions



This is by far the best this rifle has shot, looking forward to taking it hunting

Lapua parent case right?

Mm. From 1st group rifle performance better than shooter
Keep that one m8

The biggest problem is the shooter, especially in such a light rifle shooting big projectiles fast ;-)

Those will be total carnage. Overkill is underrated as you say

0.50 browning next m8

I've been extremely impressed with the terminal performance with the 69 AH

The HHT are supposed to be more aggressive, which makes sense it has a bigger diameter & similar length hole in it behind the plastic tip
