[QUOTE="LeddSlinger, post: 959019, member: 65338"] Sorry. I meant 2861 fps. Typo. Even if that speed was possible, another unknown factor is whether or not a person may have to sacrifice accuracy to achieve that speed? Maybe you will, maybe you won't. Then again, maybe it will be most accurate at max loads. Don't know. I do know for a fact that speed is not everything. I can push the 250gr Berger VLD in my 338-375 Ruger at over 3000 fps from my 26" Brux barrel, but I found the best accuracy at 2925 fps so that's where I left it. Regardless of being 100 fps under it's potential, it hammers the hell out of game. I hope your load does turn out like you plan and would be interested in your data once it is discovered. [/QUOTE]
