[QUOTE="Brent, post: 68470, member: 99"] What brand chrono do you use? Generally I've seen higher indicated speeds than actual from Chrony brand chrono's but usually not lower readings, but this would make one believe he had a lower than actual BC not a higher one. The Kahn seems to hold just about what I figured it would, 136-138gr water. I agree that the 40 deg shoulder would be meaningless in terms of case capacity increase, also the 2-4gr case capacity increase the Rigby based 338 has is virtually the same. That increase with an addition 1.5" of barrel length Darryl has might make a bit of difference but you probably have a real good idea just how much already. Someone here may remember what charges he used in his 338/416 Rigby Imp, I don't remember what it was but he stated it on many occation. I'm sure he'd tell you if you email him. I know he used one load for hunting and another lower load when concious of brass life. What OAL is your Kahn throated for? Thanks for all the info.
