On your dads LMT I have the same gun, and also have neck problems like your dad only I am fussed with plate and wire in my neck. I did purchase the 6.5cm barrel direct from LMT. Then I had Mark Chanlynn make me a 26” 6 creedmoor barrel. On both barrels I use the APA breaks. With Marks barrel it...
Since you mention you plan to hunt with it, you might stick with something you can purchase ammo off the shelf.
I built mine and wasn't even sure I could shoot the thing. My neck is an issue so I am recoil sensitive. But between the brake and chamber the recoil is lees then most 308. If you...
My 338 Lapua was finish up a couple of months ago, Greg at SPR did a great fitting the barrel. It surprising how accurate these big magnums can be when done correctly. I did go with a custom reamer, since I wanted to load to mag length. I use CIP length mag to give me additional length to load...
My 338 Lapua finish 3 weeks ago, and turned out amazing. I did end up buying a custom reamer to get the correct chamber to load Berger 300gr OTM, and be able to magazine feed. Many guys end up loading the OTM well past mag length, or end up with a big jump from reaching the rifling.

Jon,
Thanks for the reply I am a member there, what I am looking for is a place that I can stretch out to 1800 - 2000 yds. I just had a 338 Lapua built because I enjoy shooting my 6XC at a 1000.
Thanks,
Mark

Using a SHV F1 I have no problem shooting out 1000yds. I'm currently have a 338Lapua built for ELR shooting. I pick up a Nightforce NXS 8-32x56 to use on it, thinking I may not always be able to use that much magnification every time. But on the days when I can dial up it will be nice to have...

I've owned my NXS for over 4 years, easy to use rock solid turrets and never an issue. I shoot long range normally between 600 and almost 1100. So I am always dialing elevation and windage. Like mentioned prior, the eye box is very easy.
There are options on the NXS not all have Zero Stop...
