[QUOTE="dirtytough, post: 1576870, member: 6597"] I haven't looked at the dimensions of the 338 Blaser but I thought I read that it is a longer case than the 7mm Blaser? And if you seated the bullets where they belong they wouldn't fit in a Tikka length action. I know that a 338wm would fit with the bullets shoved down in the case. For some reason though I have a strong dislike for that. I would rather build something that is designed correctly than something that isn't even if the performance is the same in the end. Thats why I like the SS line. And now the 7mm Blaser. Ok it looks like the 7mm Blaser case is 2.35" and the 338 Blaser is 2.5". My google sucks right now cause I can't find neck lengths. Just going off the info I have I feel like the 338 blaser with the 250 berger is to long to fit in a Tikka with the bullet seated where it should be. Please correct me if I'm wrong because I definitely am lacking info to run the numbers and trying to make a guess. Can't remember exact numbers on the 338 SS but I believe they were hitting 2800 fps in a few of them with the 250 berger. The 338-7mm Blaser should do that or better. I just did the numbers at 2800fps with the 250 Berger quickly and it gets you over 2100 ft-lbs at 700 yards. Quick google showed around 2800 fps with the 250 Berger also in a 338 win mag. Its interesting that the 7mm Blaser hasn't caught on more. [/QUOTE]
