Good Day Team,
I decided to purchase a box of Federal 338 Win Mag 225 AB rounds and compare as many things about the round to my reloads of the same. Along with case differences and bullet differences already discerned, I found something interesting and request if anyone can take a guess.
I have only ever used RL19. This powder in the manufactured round is stick powder as well but is only 1/2 to maybe even 3/8 the size of the RL19. Anyone want to take a guess what it might be. I am open to testing new powders for my 338 Win Mag.
FYI - the amount of powder is only 69.4 on an average so far. Will test and chrony in the field this weekend. I am going to break down 6 of the 20, selecting them randomly from the box. (As Dr. Mike might suggest, random selection with this experiment\investigation might not be relevant or accurately selected for such the claim.) :grin:
Scotty. Hi! Sent you an IM a few days ago.
