Scotch_egg Posted December 5, 2010 Report Share Posted December 5, 2010 I have used qrw's and they are a nice ring, I am sure I have seen them moiuned on a 338LM. If this is a hunting trip not shooting many rounds like on a range then I would be on the safe side and take 2 sets. Better safe than not hunt.
