I went out....

[V40]

Yesterday I went to the range with my cousin. The most amazing was that a gus had a .338 Lapua magnum. Weapon cost him around 10,000 dooars easy. Had it painted in Rhodesian camoflauge. Scopr took up around $2,000 grand. I got to fire it just once and it kicked almost like a 20 gauge would. The weight of it was over +20 pounds. Hit a bullseye at 270 meters with ease.

He also told us that each round cost between 4-5 Dollars. First time with a Lapua

Don,

we shot it under a covered range. You figure out real fast that there is a big shell in it. The muzzel blast was moving the awning that we were shooting from. He told me that he was up at Camp Perry and with his scope he almost hit the target everytime. He said his shoulder started hurting after 27 rounds so he went home.

Hi Mark,

Mate, I just googled this beast and i want one!

Almost as excited as when I finally fired the .50 cal Desert Eagle pistol (or should I say a hand held howitzer!!)

Cheers
Drew

Hi Mark,27 rounds,from that beast,now that is dedication to your sport,but hey what an enjoyable way to get a sore shoulder,it would be interesting to watch it being fired just to see the muzzle blast,
Cheers Mark,
