[QUOTE="Long Time Long Ranger, post: 402714, member: 505"] RDM, Thanks for the info. I was just curious what you were getting with the Kahn. I have never done one of those and didn't know the shoulder was pushed forward. My standard 338-378's shoot 103-105 grains of retumbo with the 300 smk and 110-114 grains with h-870 and the 300 smk. Velocities run 3050-3120 fps with 28-30 inch barrels. I run the 250's 3350 fps with 120 grains of H-870 or 110-112 of retumbo. 130 grains of h-870 gives me a little over 3600 fps with the 200 grain accubond. Liltank, I have never improved the 338 winny and can't see much improvement to be made there. I don't see any improvements that I feel could get near the ultramags. Long barrels do great with the 378 and 416 imp cases. My 31" barrels have got over 3700 fps with the 200 grain accubond with both retumbo and H-870 (130-132 grains). [/QUOTE]
