[QUOTE="Scot E, post: 439622, member: 10832"] LTLR, With your 338-06AI, what distances do you feel comfortable on game compared to the 338 Win Mag mentioned above and with what bullet weight? I would think that the 338-06AI would be good close to 800 yards if I used higher BC bullets. The new Hornady .338 285gr AMP bullets with a BC of .720 is sure intriguing but I may be pushing the bullet weight-to-velocity window a bit far for a non-magnum round like the 338-06AI, as in a lighter bullet with more velocity may be better than a heavyweight with lower velocity.
