[QUOTE="ken snyder, post: 575060, member: 26019"] I've been shooting 338 LM since they were just a rumor and special order brass was difficult to get. I have never liked the Scenar bullets or Vihtavouri powder in them. Its my opinion that they will digest any suitable powder, primer or bullet with very good results. I load them with mid range powder charges and strictly stay away from the higher charges with them. I work on reducing the largest group size that I am likely to get, which in actuality is quite a bit different than working on the smallest. 150 fps does not make any difference when the total drop and drift is considered because it will never benefit from a few inches of difference when we have yards left to deal with. It is a very good heavy bullet cartridge but perhaps needs to be dealt with a little differently than most will think! [/QUOTE]
