338 RUM long shooting
23/05/04 09:25 AM

I have a 338 RUM and have loaded for it a 250gr bullet at 3016 fps. What I don't know is how far this 250gr bullet will travel before it starts to drop with the velocity slowed down. I'm thinking 225yds maybe 250yds. The rifle is sighted in at 200yds with this load. I know at 300yds it drops 6.8". Maybe it goes 275yds before it starts to drop. I have shot my 416 with a 400gr bullet and it goes 150yds without droping then it drops 6" at 200yds.
