[QUOTE="Long Time Long Ranger, post: 643830, member: 505"] The two cartridges give the same performance so that is not your decision. You are not going to gain anything over the other in any length barrel. When the 338 RUM came out in 2001 I tested it head to head with several different barrels with the 338-300 RUM I had been doing since 1998. Same thing performance wise concerning accuracy or velocity. Your decision is do you want a wildcat or factory cartridge. After the 338 RUM came out in 2001 and guys could shoot both at my range everyone went with the 338 RUM. No need the expense and trouble of wildcatting when a factory cartridge does the same thing.
