Do you guys think maybe Browning will make a blr in 308 Federal if the caliber is a hit with hunter? I think it would be nice to see. :lol:

Do you mean the 338 Federal? If it is profitable, it will be done. Money talks.

The Federal would likely have to be a runaway hit since the BLR .358 already has a loyal following and the ballistics are so similar.  It would be best to be a handloader in either case since I doubt that the .338 ammo will ever be seen on Wal Mart shelves.
