[QUOTE="Ballistic64, post: 95675, member: 3401"] I agree with bountyhunter.With a round as intense as your contemplating for 1000 yd shooting,I would also opt for a custom action.Not that it cant be done with a 700 after a smith works it over,but with a custom for the foundation,IMO,your way ahead of the game.1000 yd guns arent cheap if you plan on hitting what your aiming at.Brunos has a 8.5" Bat with a mag bolt face listed on benchrest central right now that would be a nice start for such a gun.For a 338-300 RUM,thatd be the direction I'd head if I was building a 1000 yd boomer. The 338 ultra is close to the lapua,and the 338-300 ultra has an advantage over the lapua.The lapua, as bountyhunter has higher quality brass available. If you do a search for "338 EDGE" theres an excellent thread and link for the 338-300,built by Shawn Carlock.It should answer a lot of questions you may have on the 338. Good luck with your project,which ever way you go [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img] [/QUOTE]
