I have used the .338-06 for a number of years and I think the 210 grain Nosler partition is a perfect match. The nose is soft enough to open at lower velocities and the partician limits this on close shots. I have been awed by its performance.
I've had exactly the same experience and thoughts about the Whelen and the 225gr Partition. IMO those two combinations are very similar, and more alike than different in performance despite the difference in caliber. Both are very nice combinations.
