I sure don't see 338/06's every day and wouldn't bet I could buy factory ammo anywhere within driving distance.

Never seen one in a hunting camp anywhere. I must lead a sheltered life... smile

I do know where there's a re bored M70 though. belongs to a friend. He never uses it.


THey are not that popular for sure, but I've seen a lot more 338-06 than I ever expected to. Likely due to Elmers writings of the 333 OKH basically...as a starter.

Been down to our heat here in TX lately?


Gotta admit, since having probably 130 hunters in our camps since 2006, I've never seen a 338-06 either. We're only hunting aoudad, antelope, deer, and hogs though.

It is irrelevant what you think. What matters is the TRUTH.
