I am looking to purchase a .338 caliber rifle to use in long range shooting and hunting environments. I currently have a remington 700 sendero .300 win mag that I use out to 1000 yards and I need the .338 caliber rifle to get me from 1000-1600 yards. I have looked at the Remington MLR .338 Lapua and have taken a liking to it. Any other suggestions of custom rifle makers who would be good for this or factory rifles that fit the mold would also work.
Of the following rounds which would you recomend? Keep in mind that I do not handload my rounds.
.338 Win mag
.338 Lapua Mag
.338-.378 Weatherby
.338 Edge? (Not sure what it is but have seen alot about it)
Or any other .338 caliber round I have missed you would recommend.
Your input is greatly appreciated and I look forward to learning where to go from here.
If there is a thread already existing on this topic please paste it in so I can read it. I have searched and can't find one.
Thanks in advance!
