OP Clarkm Campfire Outfitter Joined: Feb 2003 Posts: 10,378 WA rain forest	When I see a youtube video of a ~~2070 yard shot with a 338L or 338E, I run the numbers and the 338WM would have that terminal velocity at 2000 yards. I have a 338WM reamer, dies, brass, rifles and barrels. I never have killed anything past 510 yards, and that was with a 270. I could buy a 338L and 338E reamers, dies, and actions with that bolt face, but I can't see any real gain. There is nothing noble in being superior to your fellow man; true nobility is being superior to your former self. -Ernest Hemingway The man who makes no mistakes does not usually make anything.-- Edward John Phelps
