Hello from Scotland
A few years back i read an article by a British shooter who had a custom .338-06 made at great expence. I liked the capabilities of this round.
I believe that the .338-06 can now be bought as a basic factory rifle and factory ammo ? Is this true ? If so could some one tell me who makes them.
Whilst on the subject of .338 calibre rifles what "real" advantage does the .338-06 have over the wildcat .338-08 ?
Are they similar to .308 vs .30-06 ie very similar up to 150grain the .30-06 taking the lead with 180-200 grain bullets.
Any one got one ? Would like to hear how you find it on game.
Best Regards ENGLANDER
