[QUOTE="Dave King, post: 21074, member: 3"] I've heard of folks using the Win Mod 70 and also know that George Gardner uses Rem Mod 700's as a base for the 338 Lapua Mag. I've had 2 338 Lapua Mag built, one on a Sako TRGS and one on an H-S Precision 2000LA. The Sako TRGS version used a 30" Hart 1x10 barrel and the H-S Precision used an H-S 28" barrel. I currently have a Rem 700 custom in 338 RUM, using a 27.5 inch PacNor barrel. As to velocities. With the Sierra 250 GameKing the 3 rifles velocities are listed below: Sako TRGS with Hart 30" barrel 338 Lapua 3240 fps H-S Precision with 28" H-S barrel 338 Lapua 2900 +- Rem 700 27.5 inch PacNor barrel 338 RUM 3000 fps (I loaded back to this velocity but have had velocities exceeding 3150 with a hot workup load) I didn't shoot the 300 Sierra MatchKings from the two 338 Lapua rifles but have from the 338 RUM Below velocities are from the 338 RUM with the 300 Sierra MatchKing. Using RE25 2712 fps average, this is my current load. Using RE22 over 2800 but the load was very hot, probably max load is 2750 fps. [/QUOTE]
