Its a nice rifle for hunting goats in Kodiak or Bison in the backcountry.
You feel better with a 338 Win mag and it will put the thump on a goat and protect the backstraps and meat that you pack back to camp.
Hunting Bison where they appear in openings at 250-300 yards and that is your window of opportunity. They are nice to have. You can use a 7 rem but a 338 carries some power to where it is needed.
Village hunters who have to kill polar bears come into Fairbanks and buy every single box of 338 Win Mag ammo. They really like that caliber.
