I'm curious if anyone makes a .338 Semi-Auto Lapua. Is anyone aware of such a weapon, and if so, where could I look at one on the 'net?
Thanks.
Thanks.

I thought Armalite made a semi auto version. I have never seen one in person.

www.onlylongrange.com has one. I fingered one at shot and even placed one on order.

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!!
Here is one for sale now (for a mere $4500):

I have seen some pics in magazines from the SHOT show of these.
I cant imagine the price tag!
Would be trip to shoot tho!

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.

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)

I like how the target isn't shown after those rapid fire "headshots only".
