Justahunter,
How do these 275 grain swift-a frame handloads compare to a 30-06? Same same?
I have 100% no experience shooting or hunting those out of the 338-06. Only 250's. But it is my opinion that all else equal, a 220 out of a 30-06 will have the same effect. In other words, say you are walking out with open sighted loads in Alaska bear country and an aggressive bear charges you.. It is 6 one way half a dozen the other what load/rifle combo will be more effective. I don't personally think there is enough difference to really make a difference if the bullets hit exactly the same path and all else is equal.. Do you? Now put that bullet in a .338 Winchester Magnum launching 200-300 more FPS faster and I think there is some validity on which has more power to matter.
