[QUOTE="Long Time Long Ranger, post: 379407, member: 505"] Kirby, I have no idea what it was or what it was called, or if he just had a special reamer built. I just looked at the case and measured the case and neck length. First one I have ever seen and the fastest I have ever seen a 300 smk shoot. From what I saw his 3200 fps loads were not extremely hot but I have no idea what his case life is. I just know it made my 338-378 wby look like a baby. He could have one of those barrels we all love to get that just outperforms the others. I don't know/ don't care really. I just remember some guy making a post a couple weeks back wanting 3200 fps and I told him it wasn't possible. Then low and behold I meet a guy on the range with this thing that proved me wrong. So I thought I would post back and let him know. I know the chrono was accurate because both had my velocities dead on. I have hit 3100 fps with some of my rifles, but never 3200 until this guy shot his. I decided I would build one and try it. Don't have anything better to do. I will report in later this year with what it does in a 32 inch barrel. Biggest reamer I could find was a 338 Big Baer or something like that which is everything you can get out of a 378 case.
