Personally I don't care for the 200 or 210 grain bullet in a 338. Poor sectional density and poor ballistic coefficient. The 200 grain Nosler Partition in the .308 caliber is a stream line deep penetrating slug. In a 30 caliber magnum class rifle it is a hell of an elk round, in close or far away! Off subject but look at the statistics on this target bullet from Sierra granted it is a 240 grain .308 caliber BTHP for 1000 yard plus shooting, but it is impressive in a 30-378 Weatherby with a custom 30 inch barrel!
# Sectional Density: 0.361
# Ballistic Coefficient: 0.771
