I use a .338 for almost all my hunting,it has more punch that is for shure.What I like is I can take 210 gr. bullet and hunt deer,elk and bear.The plus side of the .338 is the less meat damage,I compared a antelope shot with a 30-06,243,25-06 and .338 and the one shot with the 1 shot with the .338 had less,then the 25-06,30-06,the 243.

I will put it this way,I love,double love the .338 win mag for game.
