YukonGirl,

Very basically, it's a .308 casing necked up to .338. Short-action casing (more efficient, less recoil). Nice round, but a fairly recent development. You may have a bit of difficulty finding one to try out, but if you do it should be worth the effort. And should be just about ideal for what you're wanting to do. Good luck, and if you find one to try out, let me know what you think.
