Does anybody know what the 300 H&H necked up to 338 would be? Is there a cartridge that is just a straight neck up? I was going through my hornady manual but cant seem to see anything based exactly on the parent case.
Lots of cartidges based on, but I was wondering what it would do, I have 5 300 H&H's and was thinking of playing with one to see what I could get.
The only reason of thinking about it is I have 3 of these guns are rem 721's and I get a gun with a 28 inch barrel weighing in around 8-10 lbs which is nice for carry, There is no recoil at all without a break, but would the 338 be ballistically better for longer shots, over the 30 cal and would I be able to increase the powder load, necking it up to a straighter wall case.
Any help or advice would be great....this is just a tinker case, nothing real serious unless it would make a better round and it wasnt already available.
