It would do that with the NP's too 340, but these were the old Barnes X 250's, I swear those two bull's hit the ground so hard it sounded hollow underneath, dont know if I was hunting on a dang fault line or what. eek

Whoops! My reading skills leave something to be desired sometimes. Think it was my old 340 and 38-378's recoil-finally did my pee brain in.

Seriously though,back when I had my 338-378Roy, I never did see much above 3050? with a 250gr bullet, but that was '99-'04-not sure that some of these real slower burning powders were available? Seems like the best powder I had to play with was RL25. I remember looking and looking for H870, but it had been discontinued around that time, if memory serves.
