But none of them create a merry atmosphere of insouciance and bonhomie quite like a revving motorcycle.

Actually, more like what Darryl looked like when he walked into the briefing room and saw it on the table. 
And the sugar fountain fairy swore so hard when she came to super-size that stale hope soybean; liiiike a homeless German woman. Who is this super-sizing spirit-crushing femme? And tell her I'll break a tree root up in her shrimp.

Being faster than you thought possible…it feels good. No, screw thatâ€"it feels like shotgunning a gallon of adrenaline and chasing it with an all-night orgy aboard a burning Viking boat.

i would imagine so.

we had a copy of the M24 system, elbit glass and a Steyr barrel.  the stocks were nearly a direct copy of the MacMillan.  nothing like that thing though.

So tell me why that's a cool rifle since I've never seen one before.

kopf, was that actually issued to you?  If so, congrats!  That is a seriously cool rifle.  You'll have to let us know how you like it.

Yep  [evil]

We had the .338 lm in the larger package, it was an american company and I don't remember who made it.  We originally got some AI models and then the UK banned export of them to Israel.

There were some guys that had .300 wm models, but I preferred the .338, even though I think they are actually related to each other.. or is that the .375?

Both are good calibers. They are two of the four cartridges in the Winchester series of short belted
magnums, sharing the same parent case, brought out in the latter part of the 1950's. - 458 - 338 - 300 - 264 magnums.

The 300 win mag was brought out to replicate the 300 H&H; same performance in a shorter action. Basically a 30-06 magnum. The 338 is a 33 cal magnum that just punches a bigger hole than the 300 . Myself, I use the 300 H&H for deer and elk and the 338 win for moose and bear.

If you handload there is quite an advantage with the 338 for deer size game by slowing the bullet down a tad, giving good stopping power without blood shot meat. A heavier bullet works better in heavy brush as well.

Both my 300 H&H and 338 win are in pre-64 Model 70 with the 338 having a 1 inch shorter barrel. The 338 kicks more but I only notice that at the range. When you get a shot out hunting, you don't hear it or feel it, so it makes no difference.

Another bonus to handloding for the 338 is I use the 225 gr. round nose to load for my 33 win in my old "86". I file the bullet ends flat so they work in the tubular magazine. I made a jig from a block of wood that I can file 8 bullets at a time.

I find no difference in carrying the 300 or the 338 as both weigh about the same. Have a 375 H&H in a pre 64 M70, which is nicer to shoot but is considerably heavier to pack around, so the 338 gets to go out more.

338 lapua, not 338 win.

i think the 338 win is the same cartridge as the 300 wm, no?

i just remember the lapua being a monster.

How do you like that AAC suppressor?  I've been debating which direction I wanted to lean with that. All the cool kids scream surefire, but they haven't convinced me there's anything more than kool aid to their logic.
