Full loads in a 30/06 are so close to the 338-06 that it isn’t worth the effort going to the 338-06.


My 275 grain swift A-frame loads over 63 grains of 2000 MR aren't close to a 30-06.

The 338-06 is a cool round. So, one needs both, that and an '06 (or two).

I have one 338-06, two 30-06's. But, for sure, that doesn't make the old original '06 twice as good... blush

But, I have safe full of rifles chambered for other rounds, for if and when I get bored with those two..... grin

Loony stuff... cool
