.30/338 Project

[gablues]

Hello all. I am very new to all this and have some big questions. I understand the reloading data and dimensional size of this cartridge, but what about building a rifle? What should it be chambered to? What about barrel length and best action to use? I guess my biggest question is really what caliber the barrel should be chambered to? Told you I was new to this. Thanks.

what caliber the barrel should be chambered to?

Well, I guess the first question to ask in selecting a cartridge is what the intended purpose is including the distance involved.
