[QUOTE="B23, post: 547373, member: 13222"] Embarrassingly, I'll admit, not NEARLY as far as the gun is capable of that's for sure. FWIW, you can get to 3000fps and even a little bit more with the different Improved versions of the 338 Lapua but you're starting to push things a bit and usually they seem to shoot their best at 2950-3000fps. So you can see why I call BS when someone claims 2999fps out of a standard 338 Lapua with 10-11% LESS case capacity and no signs of pressure. Hell, mine is built on a BAT single shot and is throated pretty long so I can seat the bullets way out there to get all the case capacity I can and the case is pretty **** full so I have no clue how SavageShtr is even getting enough powder in a standard 338 lapua case to get to 2999.
