[QUOTE="shortgrass, post: 1145016, member: 24284"] Thoughts on the .30-.338,,,, a fine wildcat. At one time used by the AMU for LR target. It's the .338 win. necked down to .30 or the 7mm Rem. Mag. necked up to .30. You end-up with a cartridge with slightly less capacity and a longer neck than the .300 Win. Mag. Better to neck down than up. Necking up thins neck walls and unless the reamer is specifically designed for 7mm necked up there'll be excessive neck clearance. Thin neck walls may or may not give sufficent neck tension which may or may not cause consistancy issues. Another draw back at the current time is availability of .338 Win. Mag brass. Brass availability for many chamberings that are touted on the forums can be an issue. Brass other than Winchester or Remington head stamp can run into some serious coin! "Nice rifle,,,, whish I could find some brass for it so I could shoot it!". [/QUOTE]
