[Nighthawk]

Could someone tell me the legnth of the 300 gr MK and load data for it using the .338 Lapua with N-560 Lapua powder?

NH, they're about 1.720" - 1.730" in length. The very tips aren't too nice and even, so it varies a bit.

67.8gr - 85.6gr N560
74.4gr - 93.3gr N170
79.9gr - 97.7gr 24N41

2250 fps - 2700 fps with all of em.

Here is one more:

66.2 - 82.8 N165

This powder gives slower velocities but I will try it first because I got the following unofficial load data from Sako test shooters for the best 300 grain SMK groups for Sako TRG-S, 26" barrel :

84.9 grains N165 NOTICE THIS IS OVER THE MAX.

Gives only 2630 fps but supposedly shoots 1/4 MOA.
