338WM DeepCurl
« on: November 28, 2012, 04:43:41 AM »
I would like to reload my 338WM with the 225gr DeepCurl bullets. I want to use IMR4831 powder. Has anybody tried / had success with this combination?
Thanks

I load 225gr Speer and Nosler bullets in front of 69.5 gr IMR-4831.  That has been my load for over 30 years, with my Rugers.  I load 67gr for my TCR, same bullets same powder. 

Never heard of Deep Curl bullets

OK I looked them up.  New bullets made by Speer.  I'd check the Speer manual, but believe the load I use would still be the same if I switched bullets.

A 'Veteran' -- whether active duty, discharged, retired, or reserve -- is someone who, at one point in his life, wrote a blank check made payable to 'The United States of America,' for an amount of 'up to, and including his life.' That is honor, and there are way too many people in this country today who no longer understand that fact.
