[QUOTE="James Jones, post: 215688, member: 8843"] The trick to getting the 338's to "preform well" for soldiers is a good suppressor , this both greatly reduces recoil and all but eliminates muzzle flash. I can't see in any way how a 190gr Sierra Match King launched at 2900-ish fps is gonna make a better round than a 300gr SMK launched at 2800 fps , they can be built on the same rifle so the size and shape is the same the rounds are both big and the Lapua isin't that much bigger than the 300 Win so being big and bulky realy isin't a viable excuse. In my oppinion ALL sniper rifles should be suppressed , their no reason not to other than another piece of equiptment to keep up with but a good suppressor never has to be taken off the weapon except to clean.
