Re: 338 Lapua v. 50 BMG???
338 is far more accurate at distance.If you want to hit a tank at 1 mile get a 50bmg.If you want to make a combat effective hit on a man size target get a 338.
Re: Realistic range of the 338 Lapua
I have shot my 338 out to 2000m on a 30x18" IPSC steel target with no problems.Still very accurate at that distance
