[QUOTE="bigngreen, post: 794003, member: 13632"] The 220 partition has the ballistic qualities of a brick, run your numbers with a real long range killing bullet like the 215 Berger, it'll change the numbers! You'd be better of running the 250 Berger Elite hunter or 225 Interbond in the 338 but still at a grand the impact velocity is a little lower than I like, I really like the 338 Win to about 800 yards on the far end, my next one will be a WSM version for a packing elk rifle. The 338 RUM will make the 338 Win look stupid when it comes to elk at a grand, you don't have to mod your bolt face at all, I have two Rem 700's and two Savages around here in RUM or WSM and all but one started as a 7mag with no mods, the one thing that can be an issue with the RUM is mag length which on the Rem is easily solved but the Savage your kinda stuck but I don't mind single sledding if it means accuracy and performance at long range.
