Medium bore rifle forum or even NEF centerfire Forum likely would be better spots. There has been discussion of the .338 Federal on both several times already so I know folks who use it are on both forums and at least some have to use factory loads since brass is available no other way for the most part.

There isn't a lot of actual performance info on it, here's one from the Bolt Action forum...
