[QUOTE="Darryl Cassel, post: 4217, member: 34"] Crowmag I slow mine down to 3200 FPS in PA to save brass. On my hunting trips out west I really don't care about the brass that much since it is a once a year elk trip. I run it back up to 3300 for the trip out there. The additional velocity does make quite a difference on the elk and large mule deer at extreme range. A few pieces of brass don't mean much when your out there. Like I mentioned, I only get 2 loadings out of the brass at 3300 and 7 when I back it down to 3150 and 3200. 2100 yards so far on elk for me and a friend of mine has the same chambering as mine (338/416 IMP) and also a 40" barrel. His velocity is 3350 with the 300 gr and he killed an elk 4 years ago at 2890 yards with several witnesses. Later DC [ 01-30-2003: Message edited by: Darryl Cassel ] [/QUOTE]
