my old .338 Lapua Mag Truck Gun......

You kept it in your truck, or you used it ON trucks...?

Ah, if we can only get Raufoss to build something like their Mark 211 Mod 0 .50 BMG projectile for the 8.58 x 70 mm rifles....

LOL.....Wow that’d create a steely a cat couldn’t scratch !!

Used to be we’d get cases of raufoss to play with .....now it’s sign out and account for “each” round used. Takes weeks to save up enough rounds for keg shoots !

I knew 2 guys that worked the Accuracy International shop near Oak Ridge and aaaaaaaaaaaaaalmost dropped the then 12k on their 50 flavor. I shot their 300 win mag and 308 versions yet just felt that the gun was something Uncle Sugar should buy me vs dropping that much coin for sod poodles in states or afar.

I was in love w/ H&S or McBros phenolic furniture so passed on it. I think that was just around the time I’d bought a M82A1 that was a demo (had 100 rnds thru it ;o) at Ronnie’s factory. It was a sale / steal at 3k back then. It still is accurate as the day I snagged it.
