[QUOTE="Black Diamond 408, post: 117059, member: 1563"] Kirby, Sounds like you had a fun day! I am leaving for western Wyo on sunday, I'm taking Silver Heat(338 snipe-tac) with me for some long range desert shooting. I'm hoping for some mile shots. I have three different loads to try, 141grns of US869 shoots very well in my gun also(3400fps). The WC872 keeps lower pressures. I have also noticed the pressure spikes with US869 in hot weather. I was shooting 143gns @ 70deg temps, then at 90deg temps the bolt was firm to open and ejector marks on the cases. I talked to Shaner 2121 yesterday, he shot his snipe-tac for the first time last weekend, he said "i can't belive how fast the 300gn bullet gets on target" "Its a WMD for sure" These big 338's are fun stuff!
