[QUOTE="jwp475, post: 256448, member: 3776"] Remington makes the 700 in 338 Lapua for Military/Law Enforcement and they have tested the 700 action to 100,000 PSI with no failures according to Bounty Hunter. Also instal a "Sako" style extractoer this solves any and all extraction problems. When you read Dan's article read it all including the part where he doesn't think that the Weatherby Mark V action is big enough. Mike Rock has ran the engineering numbers on the M-700 action and his conclusion is that it is strong enough without a doubt. The brass quality alone is reason enough to go with the Lapua round IMHO and that is why I went with it. The M-700 action is easy to set up for a C.O.A.L of 3.9 inches because the bolt stop is part of the trigger group and a bit of grinding and you have a repeater with the bullet seat so that the boattail is at the neck shoulder junction, therefore no "donut" issues [/QUOTE]
