I agree with BS on this.
I like .338 bullets, but this one is kind of a yawn fest by a lot of measures
I did have a chuckle, as the article states "The new magnum cartridge sends a heavy-for-caliber bullets", and then a few lines down it lists the bullets available in factory loads as the 185 and 225grn.
Best of luck to them. I'm sure it'll sell much better than their 338-06 offering did 20 years ago, or the 338 RCM did more recently.
For now l'll hold onto my 338 WM in a 700 LSS.

Ah. I wasn't aware their little action wasn't full-length. That is not a point in their favor, nor is the lack of SS. https://weatherby.com/store/markv-accumark/Amazing that twig cannot figure out a website. Laughing

From an Engineering standpoint,it's a Goat Fhuqk. They "unleashed" a chambering which is shoe horned and by literal design,precludes the use of the best bullets in it's bore size. Secondly,there's no S/S spouts(as a minimum). "Cerakote" is their new catch phrase. Hint.
Fhuqking LAUGHING!.............. It is on their 3.4" action, I'd be fine on a 3.6" M70 action though, if brass were made by someone other than Wby.

OldKchunt, I find it Amusinger than fhuqk,that besides your being a Drooling CLUELESS Fhuqk,that you like to reiterate that you also "happen" to be a Lying Piece Of Fhuqking Schit to boot,as you "forget" about your heralded Imaginary Pretend Ignore yet again...you "lucky" kchunt. Hint. Congratulations?!? Pardon my being fluent in all things and there's a 6-lug AccuSuck here. But alas...there's NOTHING Sporter-ish wearing a S/S spout from Weatherby and "Cerakote" is the new catch phrase. Google as you must. Now nod your pointy head on them narrow shoulders,like you "understand". Hint. 'Nother here and Zeiss sucks too. Hint. Fhuqking LAUGHING!.............. 'retzs, Said Weatherby Goat Fhuqk is .050" longer than a 338 Twat-Six,which in and of itself is NO Joy in said 6-legged receiver. Pry a spacer and spruce things up and a Post-64 is plausible and probably looks like this. Hint..................(grin)

I agree boys, but tread lightly, guys that have never killed a bull, or guys that have killed (2) bulls will tell ya otherwise!! .338 bore is the best bull/bear medicine period.. 👊🏻👍
Ping pong balls for the win. Once you've wrestled everything else in life is easy. Dan Gable I keep my circle small, I’d rather have 4 quarters than 100 pennies.
Ain’t easy havin pals.

Hasn't been many cartridges released since the 60s that offer much new to an average Hunter. Some, through twist and design offer easy accuracy and enhanced long range performance.
And thats great. But Mr Average Hunter never comes close to exploiting a 130gr 270 or 150gr 30-06.
This round, looks like it is for the average hunter.
Damn. Was being all philosophical and stuff, and it hit me, I literally don't own a round introduced after the mid 60's.
Joined the Geezer Club and didn't even know it.
