interesting
Not shooting a .338 Fed, but I sure like the concept. Faster and flatter than its neglected brother, the .358, and head and shoulders above the grand old .35 Rem, And .33 premium slugs are abundant and give another edge over .35 cal., which may be an advantage over the .35 Whelen. And its a short action ctg to boot.
Federal, Tikka, and all others who supported the ctg deserve a big attaboy, but it seems like the jury is still out on the round itself.
I have pondered a scout type rifle in .358 for quite a few years, never scratched the itch. The .338 fed would be an interesting alternative for a thumper scout.
