[QUOTE="yorke-1, post: 1199758, member: 11960"] My 338/408 Improved is done and ready to roll and I'm looking for different bullets to test. I have a pile of 300gr OTMs that I expect to be the go to bullet but I'd like to test out a few others. I'm curious what people's results have been with the 338 Hammer bullets so far. I've been following the updates on the 375 bullets and I'm pretty optimistic so far. I am a little surprised by the BC on the 307gr 338 bullets though. From the looks of them I would have guessed the BC to be higher than the Berger 300s which are proving to be about .410 (G7) in my testing. My rifle has a 1-9" twist so the 300gr solids may not be the best choice. I have a couple of the Cutting Edge bullets as well as some Flatline bullets to play with as well. I'd like to test the Rocky Mountain bullets too. I'll probably burn up this barrel just testing bullets and then rebarrel next year with a 1-7" twist if the longer bullets are worth it. [/QUOTE]
