[QUOTE="yorke-1, post: 1660626, member: 11960"] My BME is at 121gr. to the case mouth. If you load a 378 WBY at the same 4.100" OAL it will run right with my BME, but the larger capacity puts it in a bit of a no man's land for powder burn rate. It's not big enough to really benefit from some of the slower powders like the CT can, but it's too big to work well with something like H1000. If Lapua sized actions had been more readily available when I built my BME, I would have just gone with the 375 Lapua improved. You'll get essentially the same performance (using comparable freebore) at a shorter OAL. I don't like the limited brass options for the 378 Weatherby but that would be the easiest way to get the same performance. [/QUOTE]
