[QUOTE="AZShooter, post: 533507, member: 5219"] I understand your wanting a 22" barrel. I built a 338 RCM a while back. I believe its performance is very similar to the 338-06 AI. I chose a 22" barrel and shoot the 225 Nosler Accubond. IMO RL-17 is the perfect powder for this cartridge. It should work well with either the 338-06 or the AI version. My load: 57.5 grs RL-17/ fed 210 primers / 2750 fps. This rilfle weighs 7 1/4 lbs. Has a 2-7 x 33 VX-II with CDS turret. Have tested it out to 500 M. Killed a cow elk at 175 yds last year. I am very happy with the decision to make this rifle. So go ahead with your plans, I think you will like the results. [/QUOTE]
