[QUOTE="LRHWAL, post: 97986, member: 5418"] I'm in South Africa and I've always thought that this would be a nice African Bushveld cartridge. I remember reading an article on .33's in Rifle Shooter some years back and reference was made to Ken Nagel's .33-308 and the ballistics looked promising as a close range (say <150 or even 200 yrds) large antelope calibre. If our gun laws looked different I would certainly add one to my arsenal for that purpose. So Festus is right, whilst on a long range forum you may not get too many oohs and aahs, I like it for a specific purpose. But I'm basing that on the numbers, not on the reality of any performance that I've observed. Wim [/QUOTE]
