,338 Semi-Auto Lapua

Re: ,338 Semi-Auto Lapua

With a decent brake and a properly engineered receiver, gas system, etc., etc....the recoil shouldn't be all that bad.

The wallet on the other hand...nothing will fix that pain!!

Is it just me or is that one of the skinniest barrels I've ever seen on a AR...let alone a .338L
 
Re: ,338 Semi-Auto Lapua

None of the pics I have seen have been all that great, but the barrel does look a little thin for a semi-auto 338LM. With a rifle that size, weighing only 13lbs, I guess they had to cut the weight down somewhere!

Maybe Robert can chime in on the barrel diameter since he fingered one at SHOT. I have not seen one up close and personal yet.

I think the wallet hurts more than the shoulder. At least, with the shoulder, you can put some ice on it. LOL Also, I think only Uncle Sam can afford the ammo and that kind of weapon.
 
Re: ,338 Semi-Auto Lapua

I believe they had two on display at SHOT.
One had a light contour barrel (on the rack) and one wore heavier weight barrel. (displayed on the table)
