[QUOTE="BountyHunter, post: 402464, member: 12"] What if there is a new high BC major mftr 300 grain 338 bullet being tested and shot with a prototype advanced 338 Lapua sniper systems in Afgan by some SOF units right now? What if that same system has an operator field interchangable barrel for a 30-338 Lapua with a 300 grain 30 cal bullet? Yes I said 300 grain 30 caliber bullet. Supposedly this bullet is penetrating level 3 body armor and chicken plates at 900m meters and .5 MOA. Looks like a major arms mftr and ammo mftr partnered for the 338 Lapua with new 300 grain bullet and a 30-338 with a 300 grain 30 caliber. Supposedly the 30 cal is way flatter with more KE downrange than the 338. Both are supposed to be hollowpoints. Trying to set up a test shoot of the sytems in late July. More to follow then when I have seen and shot the systems. Hope to sneak a few pics. BH [/QUOTE]
