[QUOTE="RDM416, post: 95753, member: 3745"] Ken, I have a 338RUM (HS Precision) and have been shooting a 338-378 for several years as well, it has been re-barrelled to a 338 Kahn. Both the 338RUM and 338-378 are great high intensity rounds. The 338 Lapua is between the two in performance. Getting away from factory chamberings.....the 338EDGE / 338-300RUM will rival the Lapua, or maybe beat it in some instances. Any of them will make a fine 1000 yard load. I agree with others who have answered your post; If you really want to be able to play at 1000 yards you should consider having a custom rifle built from the ground up. In order to shoot game at that range you need to have the equipment necessary to be certain of your shot. (Not trying to start any arguments here.......I know there are factory rifles that can do it too) Kirby Allen (Fiftydriver) built my 338Kahn for me and is building a second. I would highly reccomend him. There are also other good smiths who hang out on this site....Shawn Carlock, and Chirs Matthews are two others. I reccomend you check with them to get a good start on your 1000 yard journey [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] [/QUOTE]
