[QUOTE="deadlift, post: 886288, member: 40021"] 90% of the 338 we turn out are the 9.5 twist 5R. My 338 lapua is running them out of a 28" tube at 2861 FPS, so speeds are normal. The 3 grooves in edges seem to be running fast for guys (+2900FPS) for the 300 gr'ers. We have not tested them sid by side as of yet though. Both are very accurate from the reports I get on the 3 gr. And I have ran 2 5R's, both in lapua. Either way you won't be disappointed. But if this is gonna be a round that you push a 300 gr'er over 3000fps, I will steer you to the 5R. As jacket disturbance is minimized. [/QUOTE]
