.338 R.U.M. fans

The 338 cal must separate the men from the boys as there are nothing but men talking here. Then here I come

Sorry I'm not up to par yet I'm just shooting a 338 winny. Have settled on the 250gr range of bullets as I figure if I want to shoot a 225 I'd move back to a 30 cal.

Have had best groups w/Sierra 2600s and Wildcat 252s. Both running right at 2800 fps. They will go 2850 but groups shrink to 5s right at 2800.

My goal is a 250 @ 3125. Hence I perked up at Ol' Sparks 338 Tommy. I've been looking hard at the Edge but my 1K 224cal project slowed me down a bit.

I'm looking for a 338 Rum takeoff bbl if anyone knows of one.

It seems that all of the 338 people who actually shoot elk are going with the 225 bullets and have great results.

Me, I just hunt 'em, never see 'em so what bullet I shoot makes little difference.

Spark, why the extra 2" on that bbl? What action is it on?
