AJ Posted April 24, 2005 Report Share Posted April 24, 2005 OK, we have not done this in a while. Below are 6 cartridges all in the .338 caliber family. Your job is to guess what they are. The first two are wildcats. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest bronco_mudder Posted April 25, 2005 Report Share Posted April 25, 2005 Re: Guess the cartridges 6. I don't know if the rum is belted, first I thought lapua, but it has to sharp of a shoulder for that. 5. weatherby 4. winchester 3. .338/06 Not really sure of the wildcats. #1 looks like it is built of a 308 case.

Ballistically the .338-284 is identical to the .338-06 but its a slightly shorter cartridge. And oh yeah, its fun in the XP100! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
