[QUOTE="mk443, post: 2218647, member: 29848"] I know this is more of an old school caliber, but I’ve always been into the original kings of overbore! Just got a 340 and I’m curious if anyone is running 300 grain bullets in theirs and what your actual velocity is? I searched the web and ran the data and it’s showing a velocity average of 2650 fps with the 300’s which seems on the low side.. knowing how my actual numbers typically surpass the suggested speeds generously, I’m curious if anyone is running or has run the big rounds in theirs??? Before I start buying $100 boxes of 300’s, i want to see if I can get enough horsepower to make it worth it over the 250’s. 26 inch barrel, 1-10 twist, factory monster freebore Weatherby chamber.
