Good Evening
I am new to the site and I do enjoy the lively commentary of you all.
I am looking for anyones experience with the 338LM. I have assembled a Rem 700 338LM factory and have 150 rounds down range with it. Most of that is load developement between the 250 and 300 SMK's. Seems to like the 300's the best.
Seems to me that the bolt is the weak link in the system with the thin edge at the face and ejector.
Any points to look closer at with the system and any opinions of course are welcome.
Thanks for your time.

The Remington extractor failure myth is a very popular one. No reason to think that something that will work with a 338 RUM will fail with the Lapua.
