[QUOTE="backyardsniper, post: 927842, member: 20657"] I'm debating between building a regular lapua or improved. It seem that seekins 3.9 DBM is non existent so my question is what velocity should I expect with the 300 otm from a standard or lets say cip mag at 3.7 oal in a regular lapua vs what i can get from a improved lapua if I run it as a single shot. It is cheaper to build it as a single shot since I don't have to buy bottom metal but that will be offset by having to buy specialty dies so it is the same either way as far as cost. I already have standard 338 lapua dies. I have to figure it out soon because I have to order the stock and tell them what to inlet it for. Does the improved bring enough extra performance to justify making it a single shot or can I get 2800-2850 with a mag fed standard lapua with the following specs? I do love having the back up shot in the rifle not to mention being able to carry the rifle with a loaded mag and empty chamber. Stiller tac 338 27 or 28" broughton 5c rem varmint/sendero contour Manners t5 elite carbon fiber [/QUOTE]
