Great looking gun in a great caliber. And it shoots pretty well too I guess. ;)

What bullet and powder were you shooting ? Curious, because I have a 338-06 Improved also and am kind of looking for a load. I don't shoot it all that often and really don't have the time to spend on research for a load . . Actually, I haven't shot it for over 8 years, need to, it is a great shooting caliber. I took it out to the range and fired 6 rounds through it and they nearly all touched at 100 yards.

So I took it out a couple of weeks ago and shoot a Buffalo with it, one shot, one kill. I had some reloads that I had loaded years ago with Nosler bullets and it did the job very well . . I still have a few of them and may pull one and see just what is in there. I have lost most of the reloading info for that gun, didn't use to keep very good notes . . darn it. Just what powder you use and what bullets . . .
