[QUOTE="udiablo, post: 942672, member: 5748"] Thor covered it well. The .338Lap is a good round, but most won't have any need for it. Worked with the .338-378WeatherbyMag during the mid-nineties, and for distance it's very hard to beat unless you make the jump to a .375CT, .408CT, or a 50. For any of the big .338s, the availability of good brass and bullets is better than ever before (I like Norma and Lapua brass). Not for the recoil sensitive unless you have a muzzle brake. With a good brake they're not bad to shoot (just don't stand alongside). If you can afford to buy, build, and shoot one, why not? If you want more velocity, look at the .338RUM and the .340WM. For a little more, consider the .338-378WM. [/QUOTE]
