Seems like a lot of guys use the lighter bullets in their .338 WM. It would seem that if that is the case, then the .338-06 would be just fine, where the .338 WM would shine is with the 250 grain slugs?? I have shot a few .338 WM, but never owned one due to the fact that I have a .35 Whelen, a .30-06 and a .375 H&H and just could not come up with a real "need" but I think it is a good round, but I would think the .338-06 would be about as good for 98% of the hunting that a guy would do?
