Anybody loading a 338 fed or 338-06 with RL17

I have been running some numbers on the 338-06/RL17 and with a 24" barrel, loaded long with either 225 gr or 250 gr bullets,
and I am getting velocity numbers from quickload that are real close to the 338 winmag, like almost matching it.

...Let me know how it goes..Been thinking about putting 1 on a Mauser 98 action...

Will do. I think I can get within about 50fps of a normal winmag load.
