[QUOTE="davewilson, post: 135701, member: 4491"] if you can get a 338rum in a left hand,you have all the power you need.the difference with a lapua would be very slight and almost of no extra value for long range.i understand you're in Sweden and the Lapua is probably more easily available,but the 338rum is, for all practical purposes,the same thing.now i'm not sure a light weight version is what you want for this kind of shooting.a very high percentage of long range shooters use a gun that's over 12 lbs.the reason is most have heavier, longer barrels and usually the stocks are a little heavier also.for the most part, ALL of the components are heavier.it just seems to go together.when you attempt a shot at 1k,generally speaking,it's easier to be accurate with a heavier gun.
