I have a nice late 50's -early 60's sporterized 1917 Enfield .30/06 that isn't getting used anymore. So, since I don't have a medium bore rifle at the moment, I am strongly considering a rebarrel project.
Now the question is: .338/06, .35 Whelen, or 9.3 x 62?
What say the Rifle Looney Cognoscenti?
I've had all three, still have one 338-06 and one 9.3x62.
Since I settle on one bullet/one load for each rifle, having a wide variety of different bullet makes, styles, and weights isn't important to me as long as the specific bullet make, style, and weight that I want to shoot is available. I shoot the 210 grain Partitions in the 338-06 and the 286 grain Partitions in the 9.3x62. If I had to choose between the two, I'd probably go with the 338-06 if I was planning to shoot deer. If not, I'd pick the 9.3x62.
