[QUOTE="Mike Matteson, post: 2792536, member: 101791"] I burn W-760 in my 338WM in a 24" barrel. I get 3230fps out of it with Fed 210, 200gr Nosler BTSP. Flat primers, but no creatoring. I haven't tested it in cold weather to see how much it drops off yet. Having a another rifle built in a 26" to see if I can get the velocity to match what have presently with the 760 powder, but with H4350 powder. I prefer single based powders, because of the different types of weather I hunt in. I just and set up an index on burn rates, and heat rates to reference too for each powder I use. I realize that Fed primers are softer, but I still stop increasing powder loads below creatoring the primers. [/QUOTE]
