[QUOTE="ELR Researcher, post: 2344934, member: 19541"] As point of note, the last 3K held in SoCal (2020), where the 2022 3K will be held, was won by a guy shooting a 300 PRC. Same shooter, shooting a 375 CT, in 2021 (NorCal) did not place. An improved 338 LM is quite capable at 2500. A base 338 LM with a factory-length barrel, not so much. ELK868 - an 82A is, as you surely realize, a semi-auto. With the factory pistol grip it would be considered an "assault weapon" in CA and bringing it into the state could be an issue IF stopped. Eurooptic shows a version with a finned pistol grip (legal/compliant) but it is also noted as not available and not available for backorder. In any case, as best I know, a semi-auto has yet to be used in competition in any 2000+ yard event - all bolt guns. [/QUOTE]
