[QUOTE="kermodie, post: 658418, member: 46036"] The only experience I have with the 30-338 was one a friend had made in the 80s. It was a 40X with a 27" barrel. I know it was accurate enough that I have always wanted one. Having said that, I think that same rifle chambered in 300 WM or 308 Norma would have been just as accurate. I believe Gale McMillan built a few in the 70s - 80s for military trials but dropped it because the 300 WM was more consistant. (Though I could be wrong - memory is like that). Try sending McMillan an email. Of course the 300 RUM is the new 30 cal long range powerhouse. The 30-338 and 308 Norma are basically identicle cases. [/QUOTE]
