Sweet. Was thinking of getting a Barrett 338 but might have to consider hornady. Will wait for reviews. My savage 338LM is shoot fine though.

they have come down in price.

I saw several 6.5's for around $1050-1100 now
the 6mm is even $750 at buds now

I suspect they will go for around $1599 on the shelves. .338 is so expensive to shoot and reload for I doubt demand is going to be that high.

Thats the reason I dont already own a .338

I just priced out what it cost me to reload for 300rum..this with the best long range stuff I can get which pushed a 230 grain bullet to 3220fps..230 Berger hybrid target bullet, 99.0 grains of Reloader 33, and  RP 9.5 primers..1.10 per round on my own brass.....Exact same price as 300WM, 300SAUM, or any other 30 cal cartridge loaded for long range other then a bit more powder...New brass if needed ranges from 1 buck per case for Factory RP to 3 bucks a case for Peterson brass, with nosler, norma, and a few others in between..more top makers are supposed to be coming out with brass as well...

Demand does seem high. Places that get them in stock sell out within a few days. Bought mine from impact guns. They had 5 listed last Friday, out yesterday. Other places I was watching got some in but sold out too. Hoping mine arrives Friday.
