U seriously believe that the 160 out of a 338 Federal is gonna be the equal of the 7 Rem with a 160...? I've had no issues running a 160 out of a 7 rem at 3100 with what I would call a standard 24" barrel. What speeds the 338 Federale gonna run a 160? Be my guess with what I would call a normal 22" tube of 22" 2900 would be about top end speed.

Thoughts...?
