[QUOTE="MachV, post: 25699, member: 93"] Have not shot it a lot,baught it more for a collector than shooting(one of 20 made by Klaus).The loads it came with were 209grains of 872 behind a 250grain Barns @ 4450fps(36" barrel).I tryed 205grains of H50BMG with the Barns got 3725fps and they went into a 1.5" group @ 300 yards(the recoil was very mild).Pickt up some of the new Nosler 260grain BT but have not reloaded any of them yet,doubt they will take the max velosity but we'll see.Heavyer custom bullets would be the ticket but spendy. The biggest problem we're running into with the shortened cases is getting rid of the BMG primer & finding uniform cases.we should be able to mill the cases even but havent found a sourse of raw brass that we could cut a large rifle primer into.145-160 grains of 872 might be overbore,especialy with the BMG primer. A 338BR would be great but $$$ & all my funds are goin into a WSM project at the moment,someday though=CJ [/QUOTE]
