Shooting my .338 Lapua (Savage 110 FCP Precision)

[psfracer]

Here is a video I made of it, first time out, just starting really at 400 and 430 yards. I really like this gun, it was very fun to shoot. With more practice I am hoping to get to 1,000 yards soon.

That was awesome! Nice aim. Post more vids.

How much is ammo for that? I've heard the 50. Cal is cheaper to shoot.

That's one hell of a sweet rifle.

I have a Remington 700, 7mm magnum. I've been looking for a 10 round magazine for years and can't find anyone who manufactures or sells them.

I wouldn't take it out shooting now regardless, I can't find ammo for it and I don't want to burn up any of the 400 rounds I have just in case.

Lol, sucks

Great shooting and an awesome rifle. I love the sound feedback when you hit the metal target. Time to make you a sniper!

Yeah, if you choose a .338 Lapua, you have to be able to reload. I use Ammoseek.com, and Cabela's has some good rounds with a 250 gr Sierra Matchking bullet for $3.50 per round. I got 200 factory loads, then I will reload from there. After reloading it will be $1.50 per round. Actually the only thing I have had trouble finding is the large magnum rifle primers.

Very nice, my friend has a .338 winmag, it was the first rifle (besides a .22) that I shot, loved every bit of it!

Yeah, I was actually looking into a 300 Win Mag with this rifle, but no one had it. So I went with the 338 Lapua. Truthfully if anyone would of had one locally, I would have gone with the 300 Win Mag. Cheaper to shoot, and Big 5 and even Walmart has the 300 Win Mag in stock.

But, just like with the mustang, I know when I get into something, it always escalates, so I figured I would get a gun that I can "grow into". I suspect that I won't ever surpass the ability of this gun, so I will never be looking for another rifle.

Ya a 338 isn't a easy round to find

Ugh. Wish we had somewhere even remotely that far to shoot at around here.
