[QUOTE="Poor_choices, post: 3089658, member: 129619"] Sorry, I should have been more specific. A short barreled (18-20”) 338 Win Mag would be in the same performance range as a standard length (24”) 338/06 with similar weight bullets. That’s just based on my experience with both chamberings. I found those two to only be about 150 fps apart from each other, which is about the loss I’d expect after taking 4” off of a barrel. I should clarify that I’d personally take a short barrel over the longer one, regardless of the velocity loss. [/QUOTE]
