At least two of the bullets offered in factory loads for the 338 Federal will work very well at 338 Federal velocities. One is the 185 grain TSX. and the other is the 210 grain Partition. Both bullets perform well at these velocities. In the elk done done by Layne Simpson, two of the Barnes bullets hit the elk at 300 + yards. Both exited, one through the off shoulder.

As already said, we don't really need 95 percent of the cartricges that exist today. The 30-06 has and would continue to take all the Game animals on earth. Why would we need any other cartridge? The answer would be, because people want them and will pay for them.
