[QUOTE="RockyMtnMT, post: 1562443, member: 7999"] We just had our 1st range day with our 338 Fat Girl. (300 Norma Mag imp) It is a Kelby action with a 28" Proof Sendero cf barrel with a small PK brake, HS Precision dbm, jewel trigger, mounted in a AG Composite tactical stock. We topped it (for now) with Nightforce nxs 5.5-22x. This is coming in at 10.3 lbs Our initial load work up was with the 260g Hammer Hunter and H1000. We ran out of case capacity at 3026fps with no signs of pressure. Next range day will be with rl23 and Norma MRP. We are expecting to reach 3100fps. As others have noted the Norma case offers high end performance from a shorter case that operates in standard long mags. With the small PK this rifle is very comfortable to shoot. [/QUOTE]
