I see, well the .333 Jeffery with the 300 grain bullet was very popular in Africa, and considered adequate for buffalo out to 250 yards or so (J.F. Burger took over 500 of his 1000 buffalo with this combo). But I think 250 grains is about the max for the .338-06 because of the smaller case capacity. I too like the heavier bullets.
