[QUOTE="Lefty7mmstw, post: 1021752, member: 48043"] I mat be playing Devil's advocate here, but you would think some of the higher bc bullets for the 8mm mauser would be the cat's meow for mid range work with a 325 wsm pistol. 338 bullets are usually built with at least the 338win in mind, so they may be a bit stiff for good expansion at pistol speeds. As noted, the 338 cal. selection is more extensive, but rather frangible bullets like the berger may be the only thing that'll get you decent expansion at the vel's you can get safely. Either would get the job done imo, but I'd stay with a soft enough bullet to be sure of expansion. I have experience with the 300wsm in pistol form, but not the 32-33 cal's. [/QUOTE]
