[QUOTE="Brent, post: 31374, member: 99"] We've got 700's in 30-338 Lapua Imp and 338-378 Weatherby both. They work just fine. [img]images/icons/wink.gif[/img] My dad has a 700 fitted with an AR30 338 Lapua 5 rd magazine he's thinking of barreling to 338 Lapau too, it's 338 WSM right now. I think the 30's have the top edge in the accuracy depertment, so I think I'll do another 30-338 LI before I do the 338 LI. The Remington works fairly easy if you single feed them, open the boltface, Sako extractor, not really much involved, there's a bit more work to make them feed though. Here's something George Gardener posted a while back: [B]Who said a Remington was not strong enough?? We do them all the time, The Lapua is not any higher pressure than the 300 Ultra Mag and they do those at the factory, In fact early in the 338 Lapua game, Boots Obermeyer and Fred Martin at Remington built prototype rifles "SR-8" in 338 Lapua on the 700 actions in an HS Stock with a Remington built detactable mag.
