IMRs load data web page shows this powder used with a 225g jacketed bullet at start:72g/2605fps max: 77g/2777fps.I am loading Barnes TTSX 225g for my Sako A3 338 win mag using IMR 7828. I sure could use some load data using IMR 7828. The Barnes website does not have this data. Do you consider this bullet / caliber combination usable for elk hunting? Thoughts?
Thanks for the infoIMRs load data web page shows this powder used with a 225g jacketed bullet at start:72g/2605fps max: 77g/2777fps.
Start at 72g and work up and you will be fine with the TTSX. And I would consider this bullet caliber way more than enough for elk hunting.

Do you think 7828 would work better in a 300 weatherby. Maybe I will use that to push 200g accubonds?Good bullet for elk.
I think 7828 may be a tad slow for a non-overbore cartridge like the 338 WM.
I typically use 4350 or RL22.
Good luck on your hunt.

That bullet simply kills and I can't think of a better combination for getting the job done. I don't know about the powder.I am loading Barnes TTSX 225g for my Sako A3 338 win mag using IMR 7828.
