[QUOTE="DennisH, post: 1872726, member: 30930"] I have witnessed what a 338 Win Mag will do to big game. I also like my 338 Lapua, shooting 300 grain Scenars! I also shoot 168 grain Barnes Triple Shock solid bullets, speeds are 4,400 fps plus, just depends what your hunting. The 300 grain Scenars avg's 2,900 +/- fps, 2,800 fps works great. For medium to big game, the 7mm/284 Winchester works "great"! I also love a 308, medium size game! It's very versatile. I shoot anywhere from 110 to 210 grain bullets in mine, depending on the game being hunted. It's the best all around caliber IMO. You can use it on big game, shot placement is critical. I am confident enough with mine to shoot 600 plus yards with sub MOA accuracy! My 338 Lapua, hit a deer, no bones were touched. It totally destroyed everything in the chest cavity, when hit, it put the deer in shock, a few seconds later it fell in it's track. Chest cavity contents looked like cranberry jelly! I love NightForce Scopes, McMillan A5 stocks, Jewell triggers. I use 20 deg "one" piece scope rails. I find their consistent for every use, vs. the 2 piece rail! I have built several for others who love them, all calibers. I sell a lot of 22-250's in the Midwest areas mainly used for yotes! Various 6mm's are very accurate to 600 yard plus. Big Game, stick with the top 3 sentences. Good luck, D [/QUOTE]
