338 Lapua vs 7mm SAUM 1,000 Yards! OSS suppressors ELR & Magnum Ti

[@WestDesertShooter]

Share this with a friend, KZbin doesn’t promote these videos anymore. 🤙🏼

[@Tacet137]

For 300 Norma Magnum would you get ELR or Magnum Ti?

[@dragonflyfab9703]

Goldy Locks said the .338lm was just too much. She said the 7SAUM was not quite enough. But the 300 norma magnum, is just right

[@fordvg]

Great video Logan, I have a MRAD in 338 Lapua Magnum and love it. You are right about the round rocking the plate when it hits.

[@jamesfarmer63]

I have the 338 Lapua & i feel it will do all the long range hunting i need &, i shoot long range target shooting and i love it's hard hitting on a target

[@RenegadeRanga]

I think a well built 338 no matter the manufacturer is an epic rifle.

[@capt.america6296]

Now that we have all these long high ballistic coefficient to .284 caliber bullets, the Remington SAUM needs to be re-introduced.

[@LGOPERN]

This is definitely my favorite firearm channel!

[@WestDesertShooter]

That means a lot, thank you.

[@jeremywhittington7605]

The 7 SAUM is a great round, but if you need to send a round thru an engine block at 800 yards because someone is trespassing on your property in a blue Dodge with a flat black drivers side front fender, a 6” lift sitting on 33”X12.5” mismatched brand tires, a dent in the rear passenger bedside and tailgate, a large rust/burn spot on the hood where more than likely the engine was on fire once, with gray interior and poaching deer out of season then the land owner should probably go with the 338… just my opinion!

[@elcantrell3]

I have both, drd tactical 338 Lapua mag and Nemo arms 300 win mag both excellent riles

[@TexasTrained]

Great video Logan. I'd like to see one with the 300 PRC vs the 338 LM. at 1500 yards.

[@geraldclemens1682]

Have you tried the 195gr bullets in the Saum, and if so how did it do? 338lm with 285 would do very well .

[@WestDesertShooter]

I’ve stuck with 180s for the extra velocity. In a Lapua I think 300g is the way to go

[@mr.rem2609]

@@WestDesertShooter I think 300 is to heavy, u are sacrificing velocity. I prefer the 285 in mine. The technology in bullets like the .264 and .277 (6.5mm/7mm) have really made the smaller cartridges shine. I punch in data and look at time of flight also. Less time in the air less time for ouside influences to act apon. I enjoyed your video, that was some great shooting!!! Thank you.

[@mr.rem2609]

Correction. .284 not .277

[@borkwoof696]

The MRAD is a fantastic rifle platform!

[@WestDesertShooter]

I would agree

[@OffCamberInd]

Great Video, Logan!

[@bradteddy3645]

Nice rifle brother .👍👍

[@stephenschnur9957]

That is why I sold my 338 is the expense of all that powder brass and bullets. Loved the 338 Lapua but just to costly for shooting to me. I have a 300 WSM and a 6.5 creedmoor that I shoot now Also a 223 26" 1:7 twist but have shot them yet. Both the 300 WSM and 223 rem are in a Oryx chassis. My Tikka T3x CTR haven't shot either this darn COVID stuff has me inside to much. I have a inside 100 yd range available but rather go to the range soon I hope. Trying to make up my mind to sell the Tikka it is brand new and pickup a left hand TIKKA 3x Tac A1. The 300wSM and 223 are Savage Model 12 heavy fluted barrels all RH as are most of my rifles. You either learn to shoot RH or spend more money with fewer rifles to choose from. Love your site always watching for new you tube videos.

[@tigerwoods1217]

Love my OSS HX-QD 762 TI

[@TheCenturion8404]

Bullet weights? How do you like the MRAD?

[@Hoppes99]

OSS only makes sense to me on finnicky guns like the scar and tavor who normally can't suppress well. OSS cans in my experience are super loud even on subs and bolt guns which is why I've never considered them.

[@ertatta]

Man the scenery is beautiful out there. Kinda reminds me of the Davis or Guadalupe mntns in west Texas. Do mind me asking your vicinity?

[@WestDesertShooter]

Utah, west of Salt Lake

[@RealityAnimated]

Nice rifles! What reamer did you use for the chamber? I am looking to build a similar 7mm SAUM, and I wan to use 183 SMK or 180 Bergers. I might even do 197 SMK. Any suggestions for reamer and design?

[@sd3gunner]

Great vid man

[@jasondawson6777]

That's great velocity on your 7mm saum. What barrel twist is it? My 1in8 won't let me get over 2750fps, twist is driving up pressure. I get sticky bolt and loose primers if I push the 180's much over 2800, and my accuracy drops off.

[@WestDesertShooter]

Barrel twist is 1:8

[@GregsGruns]

How is the barrel life on the 7 SAUM?

[@normandawes4864]

I am building a 7mm SAUM with a Remington 700 action and i was wondering which chassis system you’d prefer. My barrel is 1.25”dia. Heavy varmint.

[@ertatta]

What did you go with? I’d probably go with a masterpiece arms chassis.

[@YaketyYakDontTalkBack]

Interesting. I thought you get tighter groups with a brake over a can.

[@mediumugly4322]

Like everything, it depends. I’ve personally seen guys get tighter groups with a can and folks get tights groups without a can. Same with brake or bare muzzle, really just depends on the gun

[@CJ-ty8sv]

There are a lot of variables that come into play when you swap between a Can and a Brake. I've found that when I swap between a can and brake on all my large fast calibers that I have to change my load or my seating depth to get the same groups with both devices. Although the change isn't significant, I still see a group change for the same loads with vs. without the can.

[@jamiesmith4125]

Love my 6.5 Saum (6.5 Gap 4s)

[@kirkmartin2223]

Thats a good lookin' SAUM.

[@Joe-kc7sz]

Good Day Logan, Great vids and info, i have had a Remington 700 long range long action made in 7mm saum. i would like to know your load data if you dont mind? Thanks Joe from Australia.

Are you reloading for the 338 yet? if so would love to see a video on your process.

That is not my rifle. Bolt action reloading has 338 loading videos

About the same as a rem mag. I don’t shoot it a ton

Cool video man. I wanna shoot the 7SAUM sometime 🤘

[@WestDesertShooter]

Anytime you want dude!

[@johnblythe8229]

“Comment” => Everyone needs to own a Remington 700 338 Lapua Mag. Being able to shoot mine gives complete respect as to what is possible in long range shooting. I love how it gives a nice push and it’s total capability down range. Pure pleasure with a Jewl 6 oz trigger.

[@machinist7230]

The 338 Lapua is marginal in the 700, the bolt really isn't large enough. There's a reason all the aftermarket actions tend to be .750 bolt diameter, and 1.470 receiver diameter..

[@johnblythe8229]

@@machinist7230 I can respect your build references, but “to me” that doesn’t take away from the sheer pleasure of what the 338 in my particular brand and model does for me. I have multi custom builds used in PRS, F-Class Open and Bench-rest but over all I enjoy the .338 Lapua the best. I also have a .375 H&H but with handloads with a 285 gr bullet and H1000 at .3 groups, my children have been instructed to bury the rifle with me when I pass. Considering I’m 55 yrs of age, I most likely will top out with no more than 20 more years and love my little magnum. God bless

[@colenorthway8578]

nice vid

[@bradheath2592]

Put my hands on an oss can today . Seemed awful heavy .. What’s the reason ?

[@WestDesertShooter]

Was it the current generation? Was it steel or titanium? The Ti cans are right on par. There’s a lot more going on inside than baffle cans

[@dragonflyfab9703]

.338 lots of blam, not enough pew.

[@lloydcastleton]

I wonder who thinks that. Maybe like 2k yards. But yeah .338 lm gonna be my next build because terminal ballistics are crazy

[@machinist7230]

You might want to consider something like a 300 Norma or similar seriously overbore 30 caliber cartridge, as the new Berger 245 grn is within .02 G1 bc of the 300 grainers, and would almost certainly send them at a higher velocity.

[@lloydcastleton]

Not really worried about that with .338. But as is with 6.5 grendel vs 6 arc smaller faster cartridges doesn't mean better performance on target

[@paulwatterson5992]

I would measure kinetic energy not foot pounds of energy. A bullet which can unload all of its kinetic energy inside the target would be the most lethal.
