Who makes the best .338 Lapua sniper rifle
Posted in Uncategorized on Feb 25th, 2011 No Comments »
There are a lot of good builders out there. I am trying to find someone who can really build a "rolex rifle" for me that's as durable as a "timex that takes a licking and keeps on ticking". Please keep subject based on sniper rifles and not hunting rifles.
Being a member of various websites the largest opinions weigh towards PGW Timberwolf, Accuracy International AWM, APA "use to be Patriot Arms Inc." .338 Genesis, etc etc. If anyone has a good answer for this than shoot me an email. Thank you very much for your time ladies and gentlemen.
Answer
sniper is not a rifle type
sniper is a roll. Anyone who fills the roll of a sniper is a sniper. Any rifle a sniper is using becomes a sniper rifle. Any rifle NOT being used by a sniper therefore cannot be a sniper rifle.
Your basic premise is flawed.
Answer
The only difference between a "hunting" rifle and a "sniper" rifle, is the "hunter" behind the hunting rifle, and the "sniper" behind the sniper rifle. Aside from that I don't think many people would hunt with .338 lapua unless they're going to Africa.
That being said, I think it would be hard to beat a custom built rifle based on a surgeon remington 700 action. Unless you're an instant gratification kind of person custom builds are the way to go.
Barrett 98 bravo is a good factory rifle.
FYI, I hope you have DEEP pockets. .338 lapua magnum costs a couple bucks per shot even if you reload. Rifles are expensive and ammo is expensive.
Answer
Sniper = job
.338 rifle = tool
Get the picture?
Answer
This weapon is a .300 Winchester Magnum. But, the Tactical Operations Alpha 66 in the .300 Winchester Magnum should be enough since it's good out to 1500 meters.
