Re: MV for .338 Federal out of 11" bbl? Perhaps a higher rate of burning powder if youre into reloading. It would give that faster burn. I am unfamiliar with the .338 federal to know what barrels it normally has as well as normal speeds so maybe Im just spitting childish suggestions; but...

Re: big time bummer. Ouch; did it get around his pipes or did he just give up from exhaustion? I'm always game for some sportsman like God's creature killing because he made them tasty for us; but I'll take em delivered from barbed wire too. Doesnt have to be a bullet. I was driving...

Re: Melonite extending barrel life? Do you have to "rebreak in" a barrel after either of these applications? If so, doesnt that mean the you have simply worn away the edges that the application was intended to protect in the first place? Namely the lands on the rifle.
