G-98, Poodleshooter---

I can understand that syndrome. I used to do it with a .338 myownself. And Elder Son has surely done it with a .300 WinMag--

But, if you have a good, ACCURATE load that's already running well into the Mangl'em realm, who sacrifice the accuracy just to be able to say the bullet's traveling at Warp six?

My .338 notwithstanding, my problem has more often been the opposite--I found that the more IMR 4350 I crammed into a .257 Roberts case, the better and tighter my 100 gr PSP bullets shot. I finally got scared and quit ootching it upward.

Best,
Johnny
