Sir Jerry did not want to get his beauteous .458 WM+ rained on so he took this after the whitetails yesterday:
That is a Pre-'64 M70 that was rebored from .270 WCF to .338-06 by JES. Another good recommendation for JES, it does 2800 fps with 210-gr Nosler Partitions and H380. Freshened up that barrel nicely !
I have a .338-06 Argentine M-98 in synthetic stock. I would load it to imitate the trajectory of whatever .458 WM load. Having a .458 WM is like having attention deficit disorder. There are so many good powders and bullets for it, always a new trick.
Speaking of new tricks, wear a neck gaiter if you have a white beard, so your face does not look like a deer's behind flashing a danger signal:
