Very accurate round thru my Mark V 225grn Zero @ 300 yds, 3 shots you an cover with a quarter!
Wish the ammunition was available, I sure would do a lot more shooting.
Saving my last 2 boxes for Hunting.

people often ask why I need a caliber so big. They ask what I plan on shooting with it. My answer is simple. Whatever I want at whatever distance I want. Great round. A true talking point as well.

I fell in love with this caliber after owning a true. 378. More power than necessary, but performance to match. Would give 6 stars if I could.

Very good ammo in my Accumark. The 250 grain Nosler Partition as accurate and make a awesome job on big game. I shoot 3 big moose’s and all 3 stop right there, same thing on black bear. Like the other comment I just wish the ammunition was more attainable here in Canada

As a gunsmith, firearms dealer, and long range rifle builder of over 40 years, it is a pleasure to report our extensive field testing of the .338-.378 Wby Mag factory loads. Our rifle is an Unlimited Class 18 pound engineering masterpiece with 28 match barrel and PTG muzzle brake. We are consistently keeping this high performance shooter under 1/2 MOA throughout the full extreme ranges here in Western Washington. Job well done. And if you would like to try your skills at over 1/2 mile, this is THE caliber.

I have owned a mark V in this caliber for over 5yrs now, extremely happy with its performance here in northern BC Canada. It has anchored the biggest game we have here. From Bear,Moose,Elk. Out beyond 1100yrds. I just wish the ammunition was more attainable here in Canada.
