I don't have a load for exactly what you wanted but... I have been shooting 180 ballistic tips out of my .338 win. I haven't set up my chrony with these yet but they are listed as going 3260 fps with 75 grains of IMR 4350. Also these seem to shoot well out of my rifle. | |||

75 gr of IMR 4350 and 180 gr Nosler BT = 3140 fps. Same load with 210 NP = 2950 fps. | |||

You may run out of room using 4350 with the long Barnes 160X. Try H414 or W760...the burn rate and density seem about right. You should make 3350 fps in a 24 inch bbl. Be careful NOT to touch the lands with the Barnes X bullets as high pressure and loss of accuracy will result. Start at 73 grs and work up using a chronograph. | |||

In my 338 Win I use: Reloader 19 @ 73.0 Sierra 250 BT Fed 215GM primers Fed Nickle Brass A good proven load......seems RL 19 and IMR 4350 are excellent in my 338 Win. Jeff North Pole, Alaska Red Team 98 | |||
