Got my .338/06 chamber cut last night. First time I've rented a reamer from 4D, they seem to be pretty decent folks.

Now I need to dig up a stock and trigger.

The bullet to use in the 338-06  for all around hunting is the 200 gr Nosler BT for deer and the 210 Swift Scroccio for Elk. The best Powder is Rel 15.

Thanks for the Information. Not at that point yet, but will keep it in mind when looking at load development.
