[QUOTE="CA48, post: 362932, member: 21446"] That being said if you used the 265 HATs in .338 at 3000 fps would they not be much higher in energy and be very close in drop. Also at 3500 fps that would seem to be much more of a barrel burner. I think it depends whether you want to pay the price of custom bullets, depending on the shooters goals. All in all both great choices, but would be leaning towards the .338 RUM or edge because of longer bbl life and highest b.c. 300 smk out of the .338 and .308 factory bullets and custom bullets.
