338 Win is nothing to sneeze at.

fired a Sierra 250gr game king at a 2 liter bottle of water (end ways) target was the cap. Base of the bottle was against one of the railroad ties (8 inch width) at 200 yds.

Miss the end cap by a breath. Explosion was really awsome. Some parts of the plastic bottle just dissappeared.

The amazing part, at least to me, was that the bullet fully penetrated the 8" of railroad tie and kept on going. I was and still am impressed.

Also, if I shoot a 1/2" - 3 shot group at 200yds which happens on a regular basis, the second and third shots penetrate the 8 inches of wet blow sand (really fine).
