Thats why I own a 338 Win as my next step up. However don’t sell the 308 Win short at hurling 200 gr bullets at 2,450 fps. It will produce nice kills on very large game out there at 250 yards. Very similar to the 358 Win with 225 gr and 250 gr loads. I think Mule Deer wrote an article in which he described many opinions on the 308 Win as the Rodney Dangerfield of cartridges. Never gets much respect, just kills game neatly without much fanfare.
