[QUOTE="Guest, post: 24357"] HOWdy CrowMag Because of this issue called CG offset (think bullet imbalance) There are no plans to make P.T. .338 bullets. The fact is that, it is easier to manufacture a .30 cal boatail with exceptional accuracy. I would like to see more choices for .338's. I think a 280 gr. A-Max would be a great place to start. The powdered tungsten cores are so superior in terminal effect at low impact velocities, I still prefer the 30 cal. I know that the 30's and the 338's both have enough energy to kill out to 2,000 yds. I also know that the older I get the less desire I have to carry a rifle with a barrel over 32" in length. There is a law of diminishing returns in effect, when you already have enough power to get the job done. As you increase barrel length, you also decrease accuracy, especially if the overall weight of the system stays the same. The flatness of trajectory and superior accuracy of the Wolf make it a better tool for one shot kills if you want something that weighs less than 17.5 lbs., will fit in a drag bag and go anywhere.
