Can someone please run a load for me (If this combo is even in there I guess)?

.338 lapua cartridge
Reloader 25 (85grs)
Hornady "Match" .338 (285 grs, BC .720)
COAL 3.65
26" barrel + 3" brake
bullet length 1.727 HPBT

I'm trying to get a ball park pressure/velocity reading... a max would also be VERY helpful, as I can't seem to find any published load data for this combo...


Thanks guys....




I have no shame.... :holysheep
