I appreciate your insight. Mine was always a comparison of 338 Win Mag with 9.3x62 as which is a more versatile chamber as a medium bore. A 9.3 with 286s at 2,450 fps and a 338 Win Mag with 275 A-Frames at 2,550 fps are fairly comparable on large game. At 500 yards with various 160gr - 225 gr loads the 338 Win Mag will hang with 300 magnums at that distance. Again I like the 9.3, my point was simply the 338 Win Mag is by far a much more versatile medium bore chamber providing use on a multitude of game under a multitude of field conditions.
