[QUOTE="xsn10s, post: 1497756, member: 95344"] I would think so. I know the guy that suggested the 338 cal 210 PT design. He thought of that bullet for the 338 Win Mag. I haven't asked him if he designed it for shoulder shots but he is of the vintage that shoulder shots on elk were very possible. So I'd expect the heavier 338 bullets would do fine for shoulder shots. If 2800 fps is the impact velocity I'd expect the front section to shed and the rear section to penetrate through the shoulder. It's even possible to get some rear section deformation. But that's just my guess. [/QUOTE]
