Bronko,I think,with a little estimating,that load of 49 gr.of IMR-4064,to be about 2750 to 2800 fps. That's a healthy speed.

RR, you probably have more experience with Berger bullets than most anyone on here. MOST of my rifles have fairly deep cut rifling. I have heard most all those Bergers are fairly thin jacketed. The reason I am asking, I do have a barrel from Black Hole Weaponry with 3 groove Poly (1:9.3 twist 22 inch) so jacket thinness wouldn't be an issue and I'd like to try them but I also have a couple other .338's with typical fairly deep groove rifling that I think would be an issue. The ones I'd like to try out are the 250gr Elite Hunters since they are a tad shorter than the 300gr.

if your twist/rifling compromise the jackets on the orange box hunting bullets, switch to the yellow box, I get the same results shooting the 140 gr thick jacketed yellow box bullets in my 6.5 cut rifled 8 twist that other folks get in the button rifled barrels shooting hunting bullets.
