[QUOTE="nwhunter, post: 2368664, member: 30991"] I have had 4 different 338WM over the last 30 years. Custom Enfield, Ruger 77, Two different Win model 70SS models, barrels ranged from 22"-26". Sold one model 70 because I did not like its 26" barrel for carrying in the NW woods. Your 20" barrel will carry and point great. My favorite bullet in all 4 rifles was the Sierra 250 game king. I finally sold the last Model 70 which had a 24" barrel and went with a 338/06 in a pre 64 model 70 and am shooting 186 grain hammers. 67 grains of win760 should drive the 186 grain hammer at around 3000 fps in the 338/06. Your short barreled 338WM won't leave you under gunned. [/QUOTE]
