[QUOTE="idaho elk hunter, post: 986911, member: 68226"] You can not get the velocities I am getting with the case capacity that you have. The only way to get there is a 338-378 Weatherby with RL 25 or one of the Chey-Tac derivatives. These cartridges, I personally believe are the reason for the gen 2. I have never downloaded mine to lower velocities but would be willing to bet that at 2900 the slump problem would go away. By the way I was not the one that figured out the slump being the problem, Berger was. I have read of some people doing the Lapua into a improved version and Broz doing a personal version called a improved+P to even higher velocities. I do not know how hard they pushed them in their modified chamberings. It would be interesting if they could chime in and tell us the velocities they were getting. And what difficulties they experienced. [/QUOTE]
