Hoppdoc- your point is well taken concerning bullets. Many .338 shooters I see are using 165 to 185gr. bullets to lessen recoil, and in doing so, lose the 'main thrust' of that big bore. It was designed to use normal bullets of heavy weight to deliver deep penetration and large wound channels.
: The worst thing Speer Inc. ever did, was to discontinue it's most excellent 275gr. .338" Semi-Roundnose. With a BC of .470, it was not only a great Elk, Moose and Big Bear bullet at 2,600fps, it also was a great long range bullet.
