[QUOTE="dawg4life, post: 1199946, member: 29873"] What are the pros and cons when looking at 300 Lapua (338 Lapua necked down to 30 caliber. And 7mm-300WM "7mm practical" (300WM necked down to 7mm) Trying to decide on a caliber for a new build. A few things to consider - I will want to shoot this caliber suppressed. I have a suppressor that is rated for 300 win mag. Would the 300 Lapua be too much pressure for my suppressor? (waiting for uncle Sam before I can take it home but it will be soon). - This rifle will be used out to a mile or so target shooting and probably some long range hunting at various distances. - I have a 338 Lapua but I want something I can use with my suppressor instead of buying another suppressor and waiting on paperwork again. - I reload all my ammo so that is no issue. Another question. Are long actions all the same? Does say a 30-06 and a 338 Lapua and a 300 wim mag use the same action? I know bolt faces are different and things like that but are the actions themselves the same? Thanks for all the help in advance! [/QUOTE]
