[QUOTE="Long Time Long Ranger, post: 402617, member: 505"] RDM, are you sure you have 10% more case capacity than a 338-378? I don't see how just changing the shoulder does that unless it is pushed forward quite a bit. I shot an improved 338-378 earlier this year that had the 35 degree shoulder pushed forward until there was only .28 inches of neck remaining. It did not give 10% increase in case capacity. His loads were about 8 grains over my 338-378's. One of my accuracy loads is 130 grains in my 338-378's. That would put you at 143 grains. That is a lot of powder. What are the loads you are using to get your velocities? Your velocities sound right on the money for the Kahn. [/QUOTE]
