Got an extra $9,000?   ;)

That's better than 0.8MOA - which includes doping for a mile and a half of atmosphere?  Then he nails a second shot?   O0

a very nice 338 lapua can be built for about 2800 + optics, it is only 500 more than a similar quality 223/ 308  -- and if you buy right it can be loaded for .95 each - that is only .20 more than a 300 win mag

Howdy all,

When I look at the Savage Model 111 Long Range hunter for  $1,290.00, plus a $2,200.00 piece of glass.
Dies, Brass, powder, primers(got em) and bullets.

It looks like a lot of fun to me.

PS; Savage uses Accuracy International Mags for the large capacity stuff.
