[QUOTE="Yrcan, post: 604634, member: 27493"] I bought myself a Rem 700 Police in 338 Lapua last year. Removed the original barrel, and inserted a LW barrel, 32" long and 1.1" thick. I must be real lucky, cause with 92 grs of Vith N570 powder behind a 300 grs Berger, I push it out at 2980 fps. And that is not a max load. My cases has been fired 10 times now, and some of them has actually separated. But I suspect that those are the cases I used for testing Norma MRP powder, and pressure built up a bit then. So it seems, that I get the same velocity with my standard 338 Lapua, as some would get with the Imp version? Or?? I love this caliber, it makes longrange shooting easy, compared to my 300 win mag, and I have been playing at 1640 yards with it, but plan on going further during this spring. [/QUOTE]
