[QUOTE="dxlbaile, post: 2291596, member: 91579"] So, you have two guns that are pretty comparable to what you are looking at... 28 Nos - 7 Rem mag, 33 Nos and 338 win mag.. I own both a 28 Nosler and a 33... The 28 Nosler has the best ballistics for shooting farther distance but the 33 Nos will shoot bigger bullets with good knockdown energy for big animals... If you are mainly focusing on Elk and Moose, I would go with the 33 Nos and shoot a 250 or bigger bullet. The 33 has never let me down with a 250 Berger running 2900 fps .. I can run it faster but that is my good accuracy node. Peterson makes brass for the 33 now and it is solid stuff.. Either way you can't go wrong with the 28 or 33. Bullets for the 338 are more expensive but it's just money.. ha ha.. I really like the 33 Nos because I run it with a brake and it doesn't kick much.. I have owned bigger 338 guns and sold them.. Too much kick which in turn caused some flinching.. There are things you can do to mitigate the flinching but the 33 just worked for me.. Good luck in your decision.. [/QUOTE]
