Also forgot to add recoil is much nicer in Montana stock of 338 wsm of same bullet weights as heavier Sako AV in 338 win mag. No surprises in working loads up as I recall. Used 325 wsm Winchester brass. Did a lot of load development at first but that was several years ago. Will have to get my load data out and post when get back home. Always like 338-06 and have had two of them but rifle weight and recoil of the win mag isn’t enjoyable compared to 338 wsm or 338-06. It is to the point the 338 win mag sits in safe and doesn’t get shot and or hunted as the 338 wsm has took its spot giving up very little FPS and a lot more recoil.
