Has anyone really tinkered extensively with the .308 Norma mag or .30-.338??

[QUOTE="Crispin, post: 36029, member: 1499"] RE: Perceived advantages of the 30-338 over the 300 WinMag. The 30-338 (or 30 AMU) is a more efficient case. It achieves 300 WMag velocities with the same bullets using notably less powder. The same cannot be said of the 308 Norma case. In my experience, with nearly identical barrels on Rem 40xs, the 30-338 holds tighter groups at all ranges but really shines with SIE 220s at 1000. That matters when you are on the benchrest or have your chest in the grass at Perry. In pragmatic terms if you were hunting with any of these three cartridges (and a few dozen others)the results would likely be pretty much the same. [ 09-26-2004: Message edited by: Crispin ] [/QUOTE]
