[QUOTE="Dr. John, post: 8724, member: 577"] no, I haven't picked up a 338 yet. It will probably be sometime late spring/summer. just researching what is available. so far it is between: 338 Ultra mag Sendero 338-378 weatherby Accumark 338 lapua AR30 tough decision. the sendero would cost me a little more because I would want to change the stock to a McMillan and add a muzzle brake. the weatherby is a great cartridge, and all I would have to do is change the stock. the AR30 is ready to go as is. and I really like the looks of the AR30. Just read an article in the Special Weapons for Military and Police about the AR30 and the Blazer M93. I am more hooked on the AR30 at this point. does anyone know if the muzzle brake of the AR30 is removable? If used for hunting at not so far distances that brake would make ear plugs necessary (I think, never heard it) so...I am still undecided. don't you just hate decisions like this. as for availablility, I have seen a few on Guns America. I am assuming that those are still available. I even start to wonder if I should go with something in the 300 ultra mag instead of the big 338's. I just need someone to talk me into something.
