[QUOTE="IdahoCTD, post: 692073, member: 13110"] A max load and a compressed load are two different things. Crunching powder is a compressed load but not necessarily a max load. That depends on the powder used. Elevation doesn't alter muzzle velocity either. It effects down range velocity but not muzzle velocity. Weatherby brass can't hold a candle to Lapua for strength. That is why people shoot .338 Lapua's and wildcats off the case. The sucker might just be the one that pays nearly $4.00 a case for 338-378 stuff when you can get Lapua for 2.75 and reload it 3x more. [/QUOTE]
