[QUOTE="MontanaRifleman, post: 867302, member: 11717"] Riley, I haven't seen any threads or posts on the 338 LM and RL33 but there is this thread Kirby started on his 338 AX (338 LM Imp) and RL33. His case is probably about 5 gr more in capacity give or take. He max'd out at 106 gr which was 100% in his case. I thought that seemed to be a low 100% load to me as 33 is a dense powder, but that's where he was. [url]http://www.longrangehunting.com/forums/f17/338-allen-xpress-rl33-load-development-120353/[/url] Alliant developed this powder specifically for the 338 LM. You could call them for a suggested starting load. My guess is that a 90% capacity starting load wil be more than safe... but that's just my guess. I went with 90% in my 300 RUM and 230 hybrids for break-in and pressure was very low with MV of about 2700 fps. Look forward to your results. [/QUOTE]
