[QUOTE="JD338, post: 112519, member: 3719"] Remmy, As you know, the 338 RUM is my favorite rifle caliber. The 225 gr AB is a great bullet and will hold together, even at RUM velocities up close. I have pics of the 225 gr AB shot into water at 50, 100, 200, and 300 yds that Good Grooper posted for me. I can send them to you if you like. RL 25 is a great powder. For the 225 gr AB, I am loading 96.0 grs of RL 25, Federal GM215M primer, R-P case. Best group is .587". Load the bullets as long as the magazine will allow. You should be able to get close to 3200 fps which will make it a LR hammer for elk. Let me know if I can be of any further help. JD338 [/QUOTE]
