[QUOTE="Long Time Long Ranger, post: 472903, member: 505"] If the velocity is accurate you have an unusually fast barrel which can happen. You can run it over another chrono or do drop tests to determine if the velocity is accurate. 92 grains of H-1000 is a popular load in both the 338 RUM and 338-300 RUM. In 26" barrels that load will average about 2770 fps in the 338 RUM and 2750 fps in the 338-300 RUM out of a 26" barrel. So you are on the fast side. That is with 300 SMK's. I have heard the berger will get slightly more velocity but I have not shot it. [/QUOTE]
