Default RE: 338-06AI

I've shot a huge amount of big game with the 338-06 and 338-06imp.... I've also shot hundreds of bullets testing them, and my experence is that telling someone to use bullets under 250 grain for something like a moose is BS, unless you have those perfect side rib shots! You need the 250's or heavier to get proper penetraton in this caliber for big animials....

Personally, i just hate it that's there such light weight bullets comeing on the market in .338" as the SD just isn't there... There's going to be some lost big game that will suffer because of them!!
