Hello
I had a 338 Win Mag years ago, sold it.
But here lately the itch to own a 1000 yard or greater rig has been growing.
So, it would seem that I need a new barrel, for starters.
I would not shoot large game at that distance, mostly only targets, pdogs, gongs, buckets (How did that bucket-shoot go Tim?
)
So given the above, within the following selection guidelines, what would be your choice and why?
1) you can have a 30-06 boltface, a .532" belted mag boltface, or the "Lazzeroni Patriot" boltface. (.404"?) "223" boltfaces also OK, just probably not practical.
2) It can be a wildcat, but the parent case must be halfway reasonable cost wise.
3) Should contain enough powder to send bullets out there with accurate impunity, but not more than needed. A fine line I know.
Thanks
