    Re: 300 Win vs 338 Lapua I've shot both extensively...because I had to. Now that I'm retired I'm back to shooting a .308 and love it because I don't like to beat myself up anymore!

    Lubricants...

    Re: Lubricants... Over the years I've used so many different kinds of oils, lubes, grease, and I don't think any really make much of a difference when you use your weapon regularly and are cleaning it (not necessarily the bore) regularly.
