[QUOTE="WildRose, post: 592104, member: 30902"] Welcome and happy NY. With the .338 you probably need to move up to at least 220g-240gr bullets in order to make use of the higher BC's and that should tighten things up quite a bit for you. The .338WM can be a great little monster killer out to about 800yds all day long so it's certainly not a bad choice for a first time LR shooter. Save your nickels though once you move out beyond 500yds you're going to want to upgrade the optics to at least probably 14x. Have fun. [/QUOTE]
