[QUOTE="gunsmith1012, post: 583461, member: 39832"] Hello all. This is a post just for looking for an opinion on a build. First let me state i am not new to the lapua round this would be my third lapua and i was shooting them before most people knew what i was talking about in the TRG line in the mid 90's. So here it goes i want one i the 700 action. I have long actions at my disposal and i have a TUBB long action bolt blueprinted with .590 bolt face and a tubb improved verison of the sako extractor. I don't see any disadvantages using this setup for a single shot 50# gun. Pressure levels in the lapua are not close to danger level in the action or the bolt thrust area. With that being said what do you think of the build. Is it worth is, because i just can't seem to justify a custom action for a $1000 when i will never shot competition with a 338 diameter bullet only hunt long range with it. Also i am not new to long range shooting, only this forum i general say between 800-1200 yards for varmit and deer size game. thanks of the input. [/QUOTE]
