In agreement with Atkinsonhunting. There does seem to be a difference (to me, at longer ranges) between a 338-06 (in any of its versions) and a 338 WM or in my case a 340 Wby. I really like the 338-06 almost to a level that some might call excessive - but - it’s not a 340 Wby or a 338 WM. Those two rounds just seem to stomp stuff like they should be illegal especially in the long range penetration department.

My goodness - I don’t know how to express how great a 250 grain Nosler Partition is - and I know there are other, better bullets that I don’t have experience with but I can’t imagine more of a reliable bedrock, simple, at all cost performer.

All of this is my .02 and I’m not a gun writer or professional in any way but have killed lotsa stuff with lotsa stuff.
