With the 7-08 discussion on going I thought it might carry some interest to muddle around in the 30+ cast game slayers while holding it to the under qualified 308 family .
For the sake of comparison 308 , 358 and 45 Raptor are in the photo with a 150 , 228 and 350 .
I've been able to get to 2200 fps with the 308 but with inconsistent results.
I haven't found a bullet that with little care and a slow for bore powders with 158 - 250 gr of most shapes don't shoot well inspite of my skills .
The Raptor I'm just getting started with . I have a scratch rifle and a rough bore sight to go with the last of some Extreme 45-200 RN . The brass all fits properly now all 30 . The 452-255 RNFP seems like it will work also . I have a custom 454-350 RNFP ,in spite of my skills on the trigger and as a bullet designer it shows promise also .
I used to day dream about a Federal 338 , any owners ?
