    KG,
    We'll see some as soon as they are off the presses. She's a global market place these days! We had 300gn Gen II's before most of the yanks had them. You will still be able to build a shootable lighter weight 7mm shooting 195's than a 338 shooting 300's, now matter how good the brake. The angled port etc brake recoil reduction applies to both 7mm and 338 etc. I agree the 338's will be easier, but there'll still be a place for the 195's in some situations, if they work out.
    And you're right, the 375's should be the new king for big guns and will have better barrel life. But as usual we are waiting - for bullets, barrels, more testing etc...and in the meantime the proven 338's are still flattening deer and smacking gongs!
