I used to have one some years ago. I liked it, except for the lack of good bullets that were available at that time. There are more and better bullets available now and I would like it better than I already did. I killed my first whitetail buck(Post Army) with one and it fell in it's tracks. I probably should have kept that one too. Who am I kidding, I should have kept them all !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HD1

i have no experience with it but i do have a 338/06AI that has been pure joy to work with. considering that there is a mere .015" difference and the emergence of such bullets as the tsx's and the tough ballistic tip, accubond, etc. i think that it would be a wonderfull cartridge to hunt with.
i think that a person could make much worse choices than to barrel up an 8/06AI!!!!
