Ive never shot anything outside of 500 but if Im truly thinning down to a pair, I think Im leaning 300WM.....just in case. is there anything a 338 does thats hands down better than the 300?


Yeah........ shoot a 250 gr Nosler Partition ....... smile and in brown bear country that's a "plus" for me...but Ive only killed two of them so what do I know ? frown

I am not one who thinks the 338 is some universe apart from a 300 magnum, but if we're playing games and picking "two" for everything I will take the 338 in brown bear country. I understand the shot placement thing.

The 7 RM handles everything else.




The 280 Remington is overbore.

The 7 Rem Mag is over bore.
