    I am looking to go stray from the typical 300gr SMK through the .338 Edge and looking for something that will fly a lil faster. I have looked at the 250gr SMK's, the 225gr Nosler Accubonds, and the 210gr Sciroccos. Anybody have any experience loading any one of these rounds?

    There is a Little bit of info on the Defensive Edge site,like 3 loads I think.Also,check Reloadersnest,quite a few on there,but some don't look quite right on the claimed velocities,as they say,proceed with caution.

    Ten+ years ago I had a Sendero in 338 Ultra punched out and I played with 200gr Ballistic Tips, 210 Partitions, and the original 210 Barnes X's. IMR 7828 and H-4831-SC were the stars. BT's at 3330 and the PT's right at 3300 even in the 26" tube. Never tried the 250 SMK's and the 300's were only a dream, as were the Accubonds and Scirrocos.
