[QUOTE="bbw, post: 487099, member: 27840"] Thank you for input NZ Longranger. I have no personal experience yet, but from what I have read on the LRH pages, it is clear to me that BMG50 is an excellent powder for the 338/408 family. I am, certainly, not trying to argue against that. My point is simply, that even if VV 20N29 does not provide any direct improvement compared to 50BMG, it may be a good option for shooters (like me) who do not compete and who appreciate lower pressure and better barrel/brass life. (There seems to be problems with hangfires. Maybe you tried different primers already, but I had frequent hangfire problems with my 338 LM when using CCI 250 primers. I changed to Federal GM215M and the hangfires disappeared completely.) [/QUOTE]
