Discontinued 338 Federal Rifle

[338BearHunter]

I have a Tikka in .338 Federal. I have no intention of selling. It was a popular caliber for Tikkas and Sakos but only for a few years. I recommend either if you can find one.

I heard the Tikka .338 Federals bring bad luck to their owners. Better give it to me just incase.

Did the Tikka use the same barrel thickness as their .308 model? That's my main beef about the Savage versions - the .338 barrels are MUCH heavier.

I have a Kimber in .338 Federal - have had it for years and never used it (had visions of using it as a bear gun)

should get rid of it - or shoot it, one or the other

PM me if you want to get rid of it. I'll think of some explanation for the wife.

Hate to mention it but there is a Ruger 77 on GB.

Hope someone here jumped on that. Looks like it went for a good price!

Alas, it was not me. I only check Gunbroker occasionally. Usually only find people selling .338 Fed ammo for about $6/round.
