[QUOTE="MAX, post: 4370, member: 184"] JCB, I'm not sure it would make a huge difference at that range in any case but my inclination for the .338 is the 250 gr weight, JMO. The cartridge has enough snap at 400 yds and more to utilize any of those bullets. Which one shoots in you gun would be the deciding issue in my mind. In the final analysis it is necessary to A) hit the beast B) with a bullet that provides proper terminal performance. A bullet that detonates at high velocities will quite likely perform nicely at longer distances. The Nosler Ballistic Tip is one example. There are others here that have more experience than I, but that's my opinion anyway. [/QUOTE]
