[QUOTE="BravoEMike, post: 95619, member: 2631"] Greetings...SniperVLS An interesting read for you, search the net with... The 338 Ultra, a poor man's Lapua, authored by Mike Miller, makes interesting reading. ...and somewhat answers your questions. As I am certain you are aware, I am also looking for a Sendero in .338 Ultra. However it is not for me....but, my brother wants one. If I were going to buy a .338 Mag, i.e. .338 win, 340 weatherby, .338-378 weatherby, and the many custon .338 calibers... without hesatation it would be a .338 Lapua in an Accuracy International AWM-F. But....they cost immense amounts of money!! If you open a box of .338 RUM at your local ammunition store, you will note the bullets tips are clipped. So as to keep overall length short enough to clear the action...or so I have been told. Me thinks this will not make for good down range performance. However...I have no experience with this cartrige. Of course you could get a Rem. 700 donor action send it off and have it chambered for the caliber of your choice, good quality barrel for about the same amount of money. I offered this suggestion to my brother and he isn't budging. He wants a sendero... Good luck in your choice. Bruce [/QUOTE]
