I think you are right, at 1000 they have just dropped below 1800 fps at my elevation, and are still hitting with over 2k foot pounds. Its a hammer, as my buddy said. Gonna have to either put a dial capable scope on it or limit my range to 500 or so with the scope i have on it as that is as far as the bdc will take me.
I also have a 300 weatherby pushing 208 eld's at just a tad under 3k, and i have holdover points out to 6 with it, and it shoots just as accurately, about 1/2 moa on average. The steel yote at 610 yards gets its bell rung regularly. I am having a hard time deciding which to take. It carries 1800 fps to 1100 yards with 1500 ft lb's of energy.
I have a bull elk tag and a bear tag this fall here in colorado. The 340 is eating 7828 ssc and the 300 is eating h1000. I am leaning towards the temp stable powder...
