.338 Federal is a rifle cartridge based on the .308 Winchester case necked up to .33 caliber. It was created by Federal Cartridge and Sako in 2006 and intended as a big game cartridge with reasonable recoil for lightweight rifles.
The .338 Federal requires a good deal of consideration. This is a cartridge that can perform both exceptionally well and slightly abysmally, depending on how it is used.
In December of 2005, the Federal Cartridge company announced the creation and adoption of its first-ever cartridge, the .338 Federal. Based on the .308 Winchester case necked up to .338”, the new cartridge was released in 2006. Federal stated that this was a non-magnum cartridge boasting magnum energy, a big game caliber offering tolerable recoil in lightweight rifles.
