[QUOTE="Bravo 4, post: 574422, member: 8873"] I punched the numbers in for my .338 EDGE load with a 300gr SMK (what I call a poor man's Lapua) and compaired it to the load you posted. I was surprised: your load has .1 second TOF and 5 moa of drop advantage. However, my rifle starting off over 700 fps slower still has over 2 moa advantage on wind, almost 200 fps more velocity, and almost double the ft lbs of energy. My point is NOT to undermind your cartridge, but to point out that velocity isn't everthing. At long range BC will win every time. If that Titan of yours was loaded with one of the high BC 300 grainers it wouldn't be a compairison! Trust me, I know that velocity sells as I used to buy into it. I could use a side kick! :D I like your response and agree. I was really just kidding. [/QUOTE]
