Thread: 338 Terminator

Here is my latest 338 Terminator.



Just took it up the range today, went well so far with the mag fed Berger 300 EH at just over 3000 fps not to bad from a 28" barrel



It has a Proof Research barrel, T3 Terminator Muzzle Brake, Defiance Deviant Hunter action, Timney Calvin Elite trigger, McMillan A3 Edge Tech Stock.



With the VX3 CDS 4.5-14 x 50 with Alumina Caps, NF UL rings & level it weighs 4.220 kgs, 9.3 lbs as shown.



Hmmmm Shinny



Looking forward to more load development & validation

Load development was looking up today



Now to repeat of similar tomorrow

Been offline for while , looking very good Greg

Pretty close to having a load finalised, just need to tidy the ES up a little more

What do these actions cost (short action) ?

Better than Hardy Stiller etc?

Yes they are substantially better than those actions, with their integral recoil lug & rail, plenty of primary extraction, extremely smooth bolt, & general "solidness".

Also available with a .750 bolt for Lapua magnum bolt face in a standard Rem footprint & size.

The Defiance actions are essentially the Rolls Royce of actions

A bit of Googling should help you a little.

With the current exchange rate & all associated costs they are approx $3400 inc gst for a short action.

If I have a current permit & they are in stock I can generally get them in under 3 weeks if customs play the game.

Hi Greg, that's impressive! What are my chances of obtaining a loaded round for my collection?
Cheers.

Cheers @Kiwi Greg

I haven't shot this since April

I have a hunting trip coming up next weekend, this would be perfect so loaded some bullets & took it to the range to check it this morning.

The AM group were the first shots since then

It was a little left so adjusted the windage & then took it back in the afternoon (PM)



Looking forward to this weekend, just need to validate & programme my HDBs

You ll have no excuse for missing!

Why 215 yards?

Because that's how our range is set up, it is primarily a bench rest range with 20 benches, 100 m, 100 & 200 yards to shoot.
