[QUOTE="AJ Peacock, post: 279115, member: 4885"] Quickload estimates you can get 2700-2740fps with that bullet and a 26" barrel. The 338-300WSM would let you get 200-250fps more velocity in the same barrel length and the Long action magazine would be plenty long to seat bullets long and take full advantage of the chambering. I have a couple friends that absolutely love the 338-300WSM for elk. Probably get 2900fps with the 338-06 and 180gr ABs, get over 3100 in the 338-300wsm and 180ABs AJ [/QUOTE]
