No chrono data yet.
The chrono is at the farm so I wont be able to chrono these loads until later this week.
These were just 1st loads looking for a max.
I will hopefully chrono them later this week.
160 gr TTSX 56gr start - 59gr max of H4895.
No brass flow, normal bolt lift, pretty flat primers.
QL says this should be running at 3150-3200 at 61K
My old 338-284 160 gr TTSX load was 58 gr of H4895, chronoed at 3050 out of a 19" barrel.
with 1.5 gr less case capacity.
250 gr Gameking 51gr start - 56gr max of RL17
Never loaded RL17 before.
No brass flow, normal bolt lift, pretty flat primers.
QL says this should be running at about 2600-2650 at 63k
This is a really stout load and felt like it.
A typical factory 338 win mag load 250 gr is about 2600-2700 fps
All new resized win 30-06 brass to 338-06.
24" A+B barrel.
