SHOW NOTES

  • Why the .338?
    • As listener @Alaskanexile1 said, "If I'm carrying my .338, I never have the 'wrong' rifle."
    • Inherently superior ballistic coefficient to the 8mm's, .35's, and .375's.
    • Excellent sectional density (a measure of penetrating ability)
    • Heavy but controllable recoil
    • A lot more terminal performance than the .30 calibers
    • The significance of the .338's frontal diameter
    • How does it compare to the .375's for big bears?

SPECIFIC .338 CARTRIDGES

  • .338-06
  • .338 Win. Mag.
