[QUOTE="goodgrouper, post: 104552, member: 2852"] I agree with Kirby's post. I would also like to add that there are overbore 338's just the same as there are overbore 17's through the mighty 50. What you have to do is look at the bc's of the available bullets in your caliber, pick a target velocity window, see which case can give you that velocity with the smallest amount of powder, and then have fun with it. Every caliber now has bullets from the .2 bc's up to and past the .5's. The 338 caliber just has the sheer weight and momentum to maintain massive amounts of energy at long range and therefore makes it easier to kill and spot shots in the dirt. [/QUOTE]
