[QUOTE="backwoods83, post: 761039, member: 29890"] The 338Lapua Imp, or Allen xpress which is an Imp version, has almost identical case capacity as the 338x378wby, the weatherby radious is very effective, however the case life of the Lapua brass when loaded to the max is much better, CIP test 338 lapua brass to 70k psi. With a 30" barrel either one is capable of 3200fps with the right throat design and Retumbo or Ramshot Magnum, but as I said the Lapua will have better case life and feed from a shorter magazine. At this point you are at your extreme limits and will have to move to a cheytac/Gibbs case. [/QUOTE]
