[QUOTE="65WSM, post: 1068278, member: 9551"] Benchracer: Be sure to try VV N-550 in the .338-06 Ackley. A friend at my Range Club has a 24 inch barreled rifle chambered for this cartridge. He is getting amazing velocities with the VV powder. He is using the 225 boattails (Speer) and I have seen great groups at 200 with a 3-9 Scope. The Nikon and Leupold scopes have not faired so well on this rifle but the velocities are amazing. Brass life has also been an issue. One trick he has tried is to use Remington .35 Whelen brass because it is rated at a higher pressure by SAAMI. Lately he has been using Norma '06 brass. I would look at Nosler .35 Whelen brass.
