Sounds very similar to a 330 Dakota which may be a cheaper tooling option? - see http://www.barnesbullets.com/copper_manual/330_Dakota.pdf?PHPSESSID=1827884cd1bd166a487a5e2c28a5bda8




Good Day to you.

I looked at the Remington Ultra Magnum, it is an option, hunters/shooters in South Africa is of the opinion that our propellants SONCHEM make here will not perform as good as the propellants you guys use in America. Many of the wildcatters/fast flat shooting calibers in your country will not be able to perform at the same levels in our country like they perform in your country due to the type of propellants we have here.

The only reason why I do not want to build a 8x68S rifle is because I have a .404 Jeffery and if I can get more brass for my .404 Jeff, it will be cheaper to build a 338-404 Express. Even if I do not get the velocities you guys get in your country, it still will be an adequate long range hunting rifle...

I would like to hear from you guys again.

I will see if I can get hold of the reamer, problem we experiencing is many of the products your retailer sell is not allowed to be shipped to South Africa, we are seen as a liability since we have relations with countries like China, Cuba, Russia and other former socialist states.
