338 fed QL request, for a friend

[Gunner46]

An on-line buddy of mine bought a box of 338 Fed 200 gr Fussions. Says it had an insert that stated 56.1 gr of Alliant 2000MR yeilded 2869fps. Alliant website states 52.0 at 2725. 24" barrel.

Would someone run a QL on a Speer 200 using Alliant 2000MR w/ a Fed case, std primer?

Something seems off here.

Thanks.

My QL does not have the Alliant 2000MR as a powder option. I have installed the latest update.
Maybe it is there under a different name?
I've been curious about the very same thing.

I run three 200gr HotCor with 51.5gr of 2000MR in my 338 Fed. I'm not sure you'd get much more in the case then that. Very accurate load, probably going to take it out opening day Saturday to see if I can't bowl over a WT. I'm right around Alliant's velocity claim.


Edit: So I went out this morning to a field, brought the 30-06, knocked over a smaller 5 pointer at 50 yards minutes after opening light, that's my season. Maine is a one and done state. No regrets after a tough trip out elk hunting.

Those 200 gr FUSIONS shoot exactly 2700 FPS avg out of my Tikka T3 22.4 barrel and are under 1 " MOA for 3 shots ! RJ
