My guess is the .17/50BMG wildcat.

Seriously, though, I think something in the 7mm Mag category will beat anything in the .30 or .338 category. If it starts at the same speed, the 7mm will have a higher average speed because of its lower ballistic coefficient. And I think you can load a 7mm as fast as you can load a .30 or a .338
