[QUOTE="Lausboob, post: 607935, member: 32820"] Moose Wacker, Listen to long time long ranger in regards to the 225 cutting edge bullet (BC .640). In my 338 WM I'm getting velocities averaging 2950 with great accuracy and low ES. Using this combination will easily get you to 1000 yards, if that is your goal. My 300 WM has become a safe queen now that I'm using the 338 WM/225 CEB combo for hunting. IMO, the 338 WM is VERY capable out to 1200 yards. Is it the best choice ?
