[QUOTE="Bravo 4, post: 1422271, member: 8873"] I had a .338 Edge with a 30” Lilja 3 groove, it ran on average 2800 fps (depending on lot of h1000) with 300 grainers. When I got my .338 RUM it ran the same speeds with RL33 and a 26” barrel. I wanted to run it suppressed while hunting so chopped the barrel down to 20”. This dropped muzzle velocity by 200 fps! I shot that barrel out in about a year and a half and just had a 24” put on it back in December. I haven’t been able to find a load it (I) like after about 200 rounds and several powders, bullets and primers. However it is running 300’s out at 2700+ fps with RL33. [/QUOTE]
