[QUOTE="Deleted member 25294, post: 1503890"] Ok I'll play along... 28 nos 195 @3100 still produces 2069 ft lbs @1k Yes the 300 grain .338 packs more punch, but we are not seeing a real world difference at 1k and that's a fact.. And we have now taken any .30 advantage off the table, crikey I've never seen a 300win send a 215 anywhere close to 3050fps.. that's **** hot! Now for shootability; my 28 nos weighed 7.5 pounds and was easy to shoot 195's with a brake. My 338 RUM weighed 9.5 lbs and I could not even come close to tracking my shots with a brake shooting 250's. Personally I will take shootability, lighter weight, spotting my own shots, and affordable practise over 500 ft lbs. [/QUOTE]
