What barrel contour did you go with?  Is that the benchmark #6?

It's a Benchmark barrel, contour is a Kreiger #6

Can't go wrong with a Benchmark .338 barrel. They flat shoot!

The rifle was 14lbs. It was fun to shoot, just not to pack. I'm thinking I'll have them build me a .338 Lapua Improved in the future

I know very little about the hardcore specs of rifles. But some of the rifles on here make me have a wet spot in the morning. Very, very impressive on what kind of toys a guy can have, build or buy.  :tup: :tup: :tup:
I couldn't care less about what anybody says..............
