Re: Modern day hunting of Man-Eaters in India

Does anyone know what the .329/330 8x56R velocity would be with 244 gr bullet? Or a 250 gr bullet? Or a 225 gr projectile?

The reason I ask is I do have a Steyr straight pull NOT probably in 8x56R .330.

A 225 gr projectile at 2410 fps would satisfy Big Game Rifle Club Group One minimum requirements.

A cheapish 225 gr .338 projectile could be swaged down to .330.

Or a Bertram 250 gr .330 SP used if velocity enables 2,900 ft lbs.

I don't know if anyone makes a .330 244 gr projectile anymore?

A .318 WR or .338/06 is more than adequate. But the 9.5x57 mm M-S isn't anymore.
