That way when you want to go to 1500 you can! lol
 
Re: firstlong range bolt gun

a 300 winchester will get you to 1500yds. A 7mm WSM will do it with alot less recoil , lighter weapon and less powder to burn

Between the two you mentioned I'd get the 338 Lapua.
 
Re: firstlong range bolt gun

Go for a .308 bolt unless you have some place you can regularly shoot over 1200.

Depends on who built it. Marines use an A3. All depends on if it shoots,could always make it a 338 Edge after you burn up that barrel.
