Default RE: 338 federal, yay or nay

I hate to say nay to any cartridge, but all i see this one doing, is to get bullet makers to make lighter bullets in .338 diameter! Then guys will start useing those light bullets on too big of animials!

If you like old classice like the 358 Win. then the .338 Federal is for you.... If you want some power for bigger animials, then i say the 338-06 is the starting point for you....

At least the .338-06 will drive 250 grain and up at decent velocities!!!
