[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 237632, member: 2736"] There is nothing wrong with the 338win mag but if you wanted to step it up a bit without a lot of gunsmithing then the 338 RUM would be an easy rechamber with factory ammo and no other work on your rifle. If you want to change barrels stay with the 338 cal . If you want a real horse that you can buy factory ammo (At twice the price ) look at the 338/378 Weatherby and some bolt face work. There are a lot of wildcats in 338 that you can go to but you won't get any more velocity than the 338/378 unless you go to the 338 AM. I prefer the 338 RUM because it matches all except the 338/378 in a factory round with a hunting length barrel (26")and has the proper head stamp on the brass. Just my opinion J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
