What I'm looking for;

Any personal loads that work well with similar
Set up.

Thanks in advance gents!!

Cheers!

You can stabilize anything from 200 grains to 300 grains with that twist rate. The 338LM was designed with the idea of pushing heavy bullets fast. Loading it with light bullets is punishing yourself for nothing.
