[QUOTE="Sage70, post: 2245504, member: 119027"] 338 is a great bullet but a 20 or 22 inch barrel would be better. I have two 338-06 rifles with 22 inch barrels and with a 180 grain AccuBond and 55 grains of R15 they are a super rifle and accurate too. A 338 Federal using the same bullet would be great. Maybe you could find a used 30 caliber barrel in very good condition on eBay for about $100 and have it bored to 338 5 grouve by JES Reboring for $175. It cost me about $400 in total to do the same project in 2019. Using your original barrel the re-bore would cost about $300 if you have to pay a gunsmith to take the barrel off and put it back on. Call Jess and talk to him before you start the project to make sure he can do the re-bore. [/QUOTE]
