Have you begun reloading for it yet? If so, what components are you using? If not, what components do you plan to use? ie: Powder,Primers,Projectiles,Brass
I'm trying to get a feel on what a quality hand loaded round for the .338 LM is cost wise?
My match 50 BMG averages close to $3 using solid brass boreriders (a friend gets them at a discounted price if we buy in quantity) and my powder load now, is 248 gr (I also bought a good quantity of powder at a discount). I fear that when my supply of powder runs low, the price per round is going to increase a bit.
