Lot of work and stress on brass for as easy as it is to get both cases, case life might be shorter working brass like that without annealing?

Buy the best boots you can afford and break them in ,same on raingear ,dress in layers so you can pull off or put on . Buy you a good pack, some of the internal frame ones are the most comfortable. I think most of the other guys have mentioned all the other important stuff except water bottle...
I havent shot anything but flat base250 partitions in my accumark 338-378, only bullets i have on hand are 3 boxes250 partitions,1 box250 bergers ,1 box of 200grain x barnes,1 185 x barnes . Most of places hear on north arkansas do not carry much larger bore stuff. I will try some 250 accubonds...
It may be finicky,seems like the large case capacity cartriges sometimes shoot best at max. I use federal 215 mag primers in .338 -378 and .340, i kind of got hung up on 250 partitions from my time in alaska,they shot good and performed good on game. I shot more game with those bullets in a .338...

Lot rather wade in on a grizzly with an 06 with heavy bullets than my 6.5 cm with 140 grainers, the creedmore would kill one dead shooting him tight to the shoulders in open country but would be a little lite one coming straight on in the brush

The partition is as good as they come for a moose bullet,especially when you go on the heavy end for caliber.lung shot moose are dead moose with about anything you poke through them
