Re: Who makes the best 338 Lapua?
I prefer the PGW Timberwolf over the AI. The Twolf 338LM is definitely more accurate. When the Twolf was new it shot well under 1/2 MOA. The Twolf now has over 1800 rounds down the tube and still shoots under 3/4 MOA, luckily I have a spare barrel for when it's time to retire the first one.
I really like PGW's side folding aluminum chassis stock, it is very ergonomic and streamlined, the only thing I would change is the locking switch. The AI stock feels like a square brick in comparison. The PGW is a bit lighter in weight.
Ross and Steve are great guys I have known them for years, they make an excellent product and have had much military success.
As far as the AI AWSM 338's, their average accuracy from my experience is around 3/4 MOA, the best consistently shot 1/2" MOA. I do prefer the 60 degree bolt throw of the AI over the Twolf's though. I like the plastic skins better in extreme temperatures, because it's not fun touching metal surfaces in 120+ or -0 degree weather. I also like the ability to have swappable color molded skins over cheap spray paint.
In developing our SRS rifle I tried to take what I liked about many different systems and combine it into one to create the ultimate rifle system. We have all the bugs worked out now and production guns are just around the corner. Last week when we tested our first production 338 SRS the first five rounds out of the gun were 0.35" (saved the target for historical purposes
). I am as excited to get these guns shipped out as I'm sure all of you are.
