338-06 Project Finally Started

[Three44s]

Good as the .338-06 is with jacketed bullets ......... it's also a barn burner with cast!

I have a Shaw medium contour blued and I am very ...... VERY happy with it.

There are not a lot of different molds for .338 bore but mine is the Lee ..... not a very inspiring design on paper (it's dimensions are ho hum) but on the paper that really counts .......... (targets) ..... it's a dandy.

So looks be danged, get yourself a Lee 225 gr. GC mold and cast yourself up some ........... flare your cases ......... get some SR 4759 and have at it!

Turns your .338-06 into two rifles!

Enjoy a very under-rated cartridge!

Best regards

Hmm, that's got me thinking. I was just saying that the 338-06 is a bit much for the deer we have around here. Maybe experimenting a bit with cast bullets would lead to a good "smaller-deer" load.
