.338 no problem.
I've used a .338 win mag for years. The reason being my father bought me it for elk hunting in MT and it's the only rifle I own. (I own one more, but it's a .22).
I've used the same box of ammo for nearly 15 years. It's a box of Winchester Failsafe .230 grain.
I've killed roughly 11-13 deer with it. Every single deer dropped except one. Which just stood there, and then I shot it again. I could have let it fall over, but got a little overzealous.
Don't listen to the people who say, "It will tear the meat up."
Of all of those deer only one was tore up, and that one the bullet hit the shoulder and exploded, leaving about a 5 inch hole in the deer.
All of the other deer had either bullet size exit holes or holes that were actually hard to find (which I don't know why.....maybe the bullet passed thru and didn't have time to expand.)
It's not the ideal caliber, which is why I'm moving to a .30-06, but it has killed plenty of deer with one shot kills.
On that note, for some reason my friend has exploded a lot of deer with his .300 win mag. Almost every deer he's taken has had big exit holes.
Maybe someone knows why there has been much bigger exit holes with the .300 win mag and nearly non-existent ones with the .338 win mag.
