[QUOTE="yorke-1, post: 1792078, member: 11960"] I assumed that your grammar was a result of either Dyslexia or possibly English being a second language for you. My concern is with the data you're throwing out there. Some of the numbers you're giving for a 24" 338 Win Mag are so far outside the realm of realistic that they're either incorrectly typed or horribly over pressure. If you're getting a 200gr bullet over 3200 fps from a 24" 338 Win Mag, you're WAY over pressure. That's 338 RUM territory and well beyond any published load data I found for Win 760 powder in a 338 Win Mag. It's very common for inexperienced reloaders to chase velocity and not be able to catch numbers which are clearly inaccurate or unrealistic. If somebody tried to reach the velocities you posted in a 338 Win Mag with Win 760 powder, things would not go well. [/QUOTE]
