[QUOTE="Broz, post: 220539, member: 7503"] With my recently built .338 Lapua shooting 300 SMK's. I settled in just under 2800 fps. and a very friendly load of H-1000. Looks like the brass will go over 3 loads for sure before trimming. (I have only loaded some 3 times at this time, my guess is it will go 5 times.) With this load we have shot it out to 2100 yrds with consistant hits on a 36" gong. It is bad *** acurate at 1000 and 1200. (Probably farther but this is the range I am practicing at.) If I wanted to go farther than 21 or 2200 yds I am sure the increase of powder would get me there. I just don't need to do it at this time, and I figure why beat stuff up. So to answer your question. 2750 or 2800 will get you out to 2100 yrds and my rifle will do that with ease. Jeff [/QUOTE]
