A 300 WM can technically reach anywhere a 338 LM can reach. On paper.

When you pass 1600 meters, you quickly realise that not everything the paper says is reliable, especially in the wind.

In practice, for long range, bigger is better for no other reason than to be able to more easily spot misses.

At 2000 meters plus, people shooting a 338 LM wish they had something bigger.

.300 Win Mag vs .338 Lapua in a South African context.

Surely the .300WM is the better option based on wide variety of 30 cal bullets available, how many options can there be in .338 lapua?

Do you buy a .338 lapua purely to be cool and oh so tactical?

**********************************
Is cool AND tactical really possible at same time ?

The 338 bullets available are designed and suitable specifically for the .338, as where the 30 Cal bullets cover a 100 years of possible uses in very many possible weapons. The .338 is just what it is and only that, not 308,30 06, 300HH, 300RUM,short action, long action, magnum,Weatherby - AK]]> Getting started in Long Range Treeman https://systemz.online/getting-started-in-long-range/7-steps-to-long-range#post-1379 https://systemz.online/getting-started-in-long-range/7-steps-to-long-range#post-1378 Tue, 05 Jul 2022 04:07:13 +0000

I was very interested in this long range shooting, then I thought about the walk to the target ......................and back again.
So now I practice with .22 LR


That is why the long range targets are all suspended steel gongs.
