[QUOTE="jonthomps, post: 1102719, member: 5177"] Thanks! I have a 338LM as well as a 300NM. I was thinking of giving up the Norma because I wasn't getting the performance out of the brass I thought I should be getting - 3-4 reloads max. But, I think I was pushing it too hard. This is a close-to-max load. I loaded a few at 90gr of N570 and I was averaging 3184fps but was getting pretty good ejector marks. Backed it off to 88gr and... PRESTO! Zero pressure signs and still 3150fps. I have a 28" med palma barrel. Zeroed at 100y + only 1 mil to 356y = Awesome, lol. [/QUOTE]
