    338 snipe-tac

    WOW! this rifle seems to be wild.. I´m very eager to see pictures of both rifle and cartridge. Just wondering about the barrel-life with this caliber... seems so heavily over-bore. Please tell and show us more!

    Zeiss Diavari V 6-24x56T*?

    Wellcome to Finland then.. Altough LRH possibilities aren´t that great in here generally. I've ordered the scope, it should arrive in few days. Looking forward to test it..

    Zeiss Diavari V 6-24x56T*?

    The reason for mildot reticle is that in future I might use the same scope also in sniper contests and the use of laser is mostly forbidden in the rules. In those contests the quick firing rhythm to different distances also requires shooting with dots.. So, at this point the mildot reticle would...

    Zeiss Diavari V 6-24x56T*?

    Thank you for the comment älg. (doesn't älg stand for elk in swedish..?) I use laser to measure ranges so the 2nd image plane reticle will not pose a problem. I've tried a few Zeiss -scopes and I'm very impressed on their low light capabilities, this is the main reason why I fancy about this...

    Zeiss Diavari V 6-24x56T*?

    Has anyone here experience and/or opinions concerning this scope? I fancy on buying this with an illuminated mildot reticle for LRH purposes. http://www.zeiss.com/C1256BCF0020BE5F/Contents-Frame/E34E4125AA548D6685256BCF0061320D (Click on to "Product Series" in the center and then "Victory...

    Terminal ballistics of Lapua Scenar?

    Thank you goodgrouper! I wasn´t aware of that difference in nose cavity between SMK and Scenar.. Looking to the picture i´d like to think that Scenar expands much better in impact. It´s just that I have experienced that long, boat-tailed bullets often tend to fall into wild twist when they meet...

    Terminal ballistics of Lapua Scenar?

    Thank you RDM416.. ..and congratulations, very nice shot. I think I´ll try scenar. It´s made in my home country and thus it is only a bit more expensive here than the SMK. Originally, scenar is not a game bullet so it is not designed to expand (altough hollow point makes it illegal to be used in...

    Terminal ballistics of Lapua Scenar?

    Hello! The question is told by the topic. Has anyone here shot deer or elk with 250grain Scenar -bullet in caliber .338WM or LM? I guess the terminal effects of 250grain Sierra Match King are quite identical with Scenar since the structure of these bullets is very similar. So tell me what...

    Searching for bullet

    Hello again.. ..and thanks for you all for your opinions. I have tried the 300gr SMK, and its ok up to 600 metres, but after that it loses stability (twist 12"). For my rifle, SAKO TRG-42, the best performer in plane accuracy point of view has so far been 250grain Lapua Lock Base (0,7MOA up to...
