My first test of sub loads for my .338 Federal have been very succesful.

12gr of trail boss will 250gr woodleigh projectiles gives me an average of about 1030fps. After about 30 shots the slowest was 1001fps and the fastest was 1080fps. After I have let the barrel cool my first shot was always around 1010 to 1020fps. Will the 3rd and 4th shot starting to get a little quick at mostly around 1040 to 1060fps. Never fired more than 4 shots in a row.
Groups have been around 1 inch at 50 meters. 2 1/2 at 100 meters.

Overall I was pretty happy with the resuts. And havnt felt a great deal of need to try and improve on it.

Cheers
