I promise you that I've been smacked around plenty.

Your FT/LB figures sound reasonable to me. I used to mess with those often.
"THE" problem with the O G Tanger 338 was
NOT just felt by myself. OTHERS on here 'testified' to the same.
It's
more than the E figures -- stock design and
RED BRICK butt pad INCREASES the "pain".
My 700 BDL 8mm R M shoots MORE powder, 5 grains less bullet, HIGHER velocity ---NO PAIN.
As I said, the BDL -aka- Rem 700 375 H H does NOT hurt like the Tanger 338 WM. I also promise you it AIN'T imagined ! !
If you AIN'T ever fired a 338 WM in a Ruger 77 (OG) Tanger, Red Pad...... you owe it to yourself to test drive it.
