peaceman Campfire Regular P Joined: Jan 2015 Posts: 891 The last frontier	While late to the post it may help others looking at the 338 federal. I own two rifles, a tikka lite and a ruger Hawkeye. In the tikka I load 185 Barnes ttsx with 2230 at 2750 fps. This produced a bang flop result on a mountain goat at 230 yards on a quartering away shot. Bullet passed through breaking the offside leg on exit. The ruger shoots the factory 210 partitions in fair groups of 1 - 1.5 moa at about 2600fps. I hand load 160 Barnes ttsx at 3000 fps and shoot clover leafs with this load. I have not hunted with this round yet.
