[QUOTE="ofbandg, post: 1749063, member: 91402"] .338-06 with 180 or 185 grain at around 3000 fps. is a good all around. Even the 160 Barnes will work out to 500 and the 225 grain is a good northern bullet. Works nicely in a light rifle with a standard action and 22 inch barrel. Factory ammo exists but it's easy to form your own brass, just neck down 35 Whelan in one pass or neck up 30-06 in two passes, (06 to 8mm to 338). If I only had one rifle, (beyond belief) this is what it would be. [/QUOTE]
