[QUOTE="sable tireur, post: 2187786, member: 27307"] [ATTACH type="full"]271559[/ATTACH] The military has thrown the .338 Lapua under the bus while accepting the .338 Norma Mag and .300 Norma Mag as better cartridges for ELR targets. This rifle is a .338 Norma Mag. on a Badger Ordnance 2013 action with a Bartlein 28" SS fluted barrel. I used the BO FTE brake and Surgeon DBM bottom metal. The scope is an older USO 3.8 - 22 in OD. The stock is a Manners T4A. There are 1/2 dozen excellent actions built specifically to handle the .590" rim diameter so opinions only count if you choose the same action. Do some searching to see what's available nowadays, you might be surprised. ;):) Have fun deciding! [/QUOTE]
