[QUOTE="royinidaho, post: 723005, member: 2011"] 338 AM vs 375 AM? My read on this is that they are both very similar with the exception of the 375 having an advantage in bullet weight. But when push comes to shove a game animal isn't going to know the difference. The 338 may be a bit more of a barrel burner. If used as designed, for hunting only, it'll last a couple of lifetimes. I went with the 375 AM simply because I finally got tired of "settling for" and went as big as I could imagine . . . and a 357 barrel was immediately available.:) The 350 SMK @ 3250 has about the same flight time as my 270 AM shooting 170s. Plus the Kirby built 375 AM is much more of a pleasure to shoot than my braked 338 RUM w/300s and its nice to shoot. [/QUOTE]
