[QUOTE="cross, post: 1698064, member: 8592"] TRG65 has the same luck that I do with a .338 WM. I tried the 250’s but I don’t think a .338 Winchester has quite enough powder capacity to get them moving fast enough. My rifle has a 26” barrel and I spent a fair amount of time, bullets, and powder trying to get 250 Berger’s up past 2750 but was completely unable. I tried Reloder 19, 22, and 25 and H4350, H4831, H1000, and IMR4831. That same rifle will shoot 225 Speer Spitzers at 3,000fps with IMR4831 and will get 225 Nosler Accubonds up to about 2925 so it’s not really a slow barrel. I think the Hammers would be great. I’ve just started messing with some 225 Sledgehammers and IMR4831 will get me up around 2935 with good groups and a very low ES. [/QUOTE]
