..same as every other cartridge based off the /06 casing, all the short mags and all the belted magnums, gladly giving up a little velocity for tons of other benefits. H-4350, "mothers milk" of reloading
Just a few pics of spring time in Elk Country in PA....Some Bulls are really sproutin' them out while others refuse to give up last years..go figure. Cows are getting heavy and mothers day will shortly be here....some great chain saw carvings at the annual festival in Ridgeway this week, nice...
That old dead horse .308win along with 165 grain Sierras will handle the vast vast majority of all your hunting needs anywhere on the planet, guaranteed ! You do your job and that ole' gal will more than do hers....somewhere along the line we've been bamboozled by marketing gimmick cartridges...
..it eventually bothers everyone whether they admit or not ! I've found that taking blood thinners caused myself to cut way back on shooting the big warhorses...no fun seeing your arms black and blue from your shoulder to your wrist.... love them big bangers !
...can't use lightweight and reduced recoil in the same paragraph....and who notices the recoil when the moment of truth arises anyway, nobody... .338's big medicine !
..in my opinion it's not worth arguing about in a hunting firearm....in a target or competition rifle I'd give the edge to the RUM easily...sharpe shoulder and better brass..
