    Anybody shooting the savage 110 338 lapua?

    Been watching some videos on it. Very affordable and seems pretty accurate. May have to make it my new toy.

    I'd love one of these rifles. I just don't have a place big enough to justify that kind of range. The topography of my area limits long range shots. A big field around me is 400 yards across. 7 rem mag or 300 win mag is about as big as one needs around me. If I were out west, I'd definitely have a 338 lapua.

    Not the Savage 110 but I've fired a few Lapua rounds in my day. Amazing range and energy at impact. Not a round for the faint of heart. And it's not a round you're gonna shoot a lot of. At $2-5 per round it gets expensive.

    I've been thinking the same thing. That would give my AR50 a nice little brother!

    Ultimate round for what? If you can't hit it with 308 then you should be running anyway

    Skip the .338 lapua crap Brandon.....if you are really serious about going AT&FrikkinT on chat.....and you are reloading your own stuff now.......Look hard & serious at Cheytac (Cheyenne Tactical loads).


    .375 will have you about crapping yourself @ 1000 yards. The .408 will get you to 2000 w/o trying (as long as you do your part). the .375 is a bad ass round though IMPO!!!


    Both of these were originated of the old British .505


    Or go Balls out for a .416 Barret

    Man have you seen the price tag? I can get the lapua for around 1200.00. Those are bad ass for sure.
