338 Baby
I rented out the 1997 Reloaders Digest from the local library because it's the only book of it's kind there. In the firt couple pages I noticed a couple pages about the "338 Baby", also known as a 338-08. Isn't the new 338 Federal a copy of that? I guess it was patented or copyrighted or whatever?


Love shooting precision and long range. Big bores too!

Tyler,
if you don't have yet, as for "P O ACKLEYS Handbooks vol 1 and vol 2" for christmas.

Parker (that's the P) mentions a 338/08 in the early 50s, iirc, and no later than the 60s.
