[QUOTE="DrivesGuy, post: 1903652, member: 24974"] If I were going to build a rifle for fun, I would probably build a 338 Lapua. It has the effectiveness of the Barrett 50. It was designed as a sniper round with the ability to penetrate 7 layers of body armor and still affect a kill shot. If I went to hunt in Idaho, Wyoming, Montana or Colorado where a long range shot is necessary to take down an Elk on another mountain, this would be my caliber of choice. :gun1: [/QUOTE]
