I have a .330 Dakota...in between the 338 Winny and the 340 Weatherby...it's fun to shoot. Will I ever actually use it on game? Probably not when a 7mm can do the job just as well and there's a 375 Wby in the works for the "big" stuff.

Now a .338 RUM, 338/378 Wby on the other hand, those are a big step up in performance and are hard to beat.

Me personally, I'll be selling the Dakota soon and jumping into a 338/378 Improved, the smaller .338's just don't have enough over the 7mm/300 mags in my opinion.

Unless of course, it's just a smokin hot deal and you need to scratch your .338 itch!
