We’ve been running Barnes 225 grain bullets through my wife’s .338 WM, since the mid-‘90’s. First with the original “X” Bullet, then the TTSX when it was introduced. We’re using Federal Premium (nickel plated) cases, Federal 215 primers, with Reloader 22. We’re getting 2950 fps from her Win. Model 70 SS with 24” barrel!
It’s been very effective for her on, antelope, deer, elk, moose, and bear......darn good “all around” cartridge and load! memtb
