[QUOTE="youngbuck, post: 556901, member: 22987"] From Xtreme's web sight "At one mile, the .338 Xtreme Tactical is capable of minute-of-angle accuracy, and its 266-grain solid copper bullet retains a velocity of 1,550 f.p.s. and about 1,000 ft. pounds of energy." I'm not sure what altitude these numbers were figured at. At 1760yd, 3500' ele, my 338LM and a 300gr Berger OTM, I'm at 1524fps with 1547ft/lbs. The number they list for 2kyds is also beatable with a 338LM with 300gr bergers; 15fps more MV and 200 ft/lb better than the Xtreme. If I was in the market for a hot-rod 338 I would definitely give Kirby a call. If I bought a 338 in that class, I would want better numbers than Xtreme is putting up. [/QUOTE]
