[QUOTE="D.Camilleri, post: 2519830, member: 2567"] I am kind of wondering what your friend is after. I get heavy for caliber bullets, which is why I like 300 gr bullets in my 338 rum. But, one of the reasons I like them is because I can get very good velocity, 2850 with Berger and Nosler Accubond, 2940 with Hornady 285 eldm, and 3250 with Nosler 225 accubonds. When I switch to Barnes tipped triple shock 225's I hit pressure at about 3150 and keeping the impact velocity over 2000 fps becomes the hard part for long shots. He needs to look at how far he wants to shoot and where he will hit that 2000 fps threshold. [/QUOTE]
