[QUOTE="Guest, post: 24362"] Texas The 300 grainer needs to be a boatail, that is more than 2 years away. The 5.5 X 22 NXS R2 is the scope designed for this system, and is highly recommended. The 300 MK can equal or exceed the Wolf at close range in energy: wind deflection and trajectory are a different story. DC would be able to tell you how long a barrel is needed to push a 300 over 3,200 fps. and I will bet it is significantly longer and heavier. We just have not built any .338 Lapuas longer than 32". The .338 will not equal the accuracy of the Wolf, if they were even close accuracy wise to the good 30 cals, their ballistics would allow them to dominate 1,000 yd. competitions. That is just not the case. The better gun builders get the more you see small calibers show up in the record books. As you approach perfection on the gun side, removing most of the "gun induced" error sources, the bigger percentage bullet CG offset is, in the total remaining error. This is where the small calibers have an advantage, and it has begun to show on the record. I believe this trend will continue for paper punchers. The 28" barrel will loose about 60 fps. with a 253 gr. and about 80 fps. with a 210 gr. bullet. Powdered Tungsten bullets will be available in the very near future, at a reasonable cost. I will publish the loading data for these bullets when they come available. By the way, whats a funny farm look like on the inside, my wife says I need to pick a nice one out, and soon.
