Yep, another “Which cartridge?” thread.

338 federal up to the 375 h&h and all the ones in between.--all solid choices since you have the lower end covered.-- And don't forget about the 375 ruger.

Build a 9.3x62 and go hunt virtually anything you want.
5 shot floor plate mag in a 30 06 length action and no belt.
Lapua Brass as well

Definitely keep the 375 Ruger in the running, along with the 338 WinMag.
NA: 338WM, Africa: 375Ruger.

338-06 A Square could be pretty cool.

308 Win w/ 180 gr Swift A-frame is good on Elk to about 450 yards.

What difference does a belt make in your perception on cartridge cases?

One of THE most accurate cartridges ever designed has a belt AND a short neck.
Can you guess what cartridge I'm referencing?
