Then try a 225 Nosler. |

| Shot lots of 225s years ago, looking to try the new bullets. I'm haveing great luck with the TSXs in .375 and .416 so I'd like to give them a try. Been useing this gun mostly for deer lately hence the light bullet. If it shoots it should be fine for deer. |

| Way too much gun for deer. Unless you're hunting grizz country. |

| A 210 Partition is enough bullet for 95% of the game you will ever shoot. It's all I've ever used and is magic as far as I'm concerned. I get 3050 fps out of a 26" barrel and 3/4" accuracy. It drops an elk like the Hammer of Thor !!!

Haven't pushed mine past 2900 but the 210 partition does great job on nilgai, hogs and deer, as well. Regards, hm

I've shot deer with most standard and mag rounds. I find the 338 just right. I do hunt mostly in bear country not that I need a 338 for protection. It kills deer cleanly with little destruction. They are normally laying right where they were hit. I've been useing 338s for more tha 20 yrs so I know what should work, just looking for some spacific loads it cut developement time. |

| I'm loading mine with 75 grains of RL19 and the 210 TSX for 2930 fps. It is a good .7-.8 for three shots out of my FN and velocity is decent as well. I would suspect it could be pushed to over 3000 fps if you wanted. I am using Win. brass and CCI 250 primers and loading about .050 off the lands.
A shot not taken is always a miss

75.5 gr RL 19 in WW case, Fed 210 BR and 210 Nos Partitions = 2900 fps & 5/8" 100 yd groups in my rifle. YMMV. Regards, hm
