[QUOTE="surgeon260, post: 1872176, member: 103874"] That's very impressive to say the least, especially with H1000. I have a 338 Norma improved built by Gradous. It is pretty much a min taper, max capacity design, throated for 300 Bergers. In my experience, that cartridge needs RL33 or N570 to shine. Looking back at my notes from a couple years back, I hit pressure with H1000 at around 2790-2810 fps, and that is with a 28" barrel. With a case full of RL33 I am over 2920 with great ES. Not saying you can't safely hit 2850 with H1000 in a shorter barrel, just providing another data point. Here is what my fireformed case looks like for comparison: [ATTACH type="full"]186095[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
