Hey Squantos, glad yer here. Got an off topic question fer ya.

I got a buddy who's looking at getting a .340 Weatherby for big yardage shooting. I remember you sayin' once you had a .338 Lapua...how do you think these two compare?

Thanks in advance.

.340 weatherby is a awesome long range rifle. A buddy in Lindrith NM uses one on a regular basis for elk at extreme ranges as he says he hates to track or chase a wounded animal..........:o)

He uses a Apache style finger hole phenolic stock from McBros and it has a muzzle brake as well.

Great rifle . I watch him use that rig for everything from long range coyotes to Bull Elk and Mulies up there !

Good Choice. His is a weatherby by the way.

Stay safe !

I have a buddy who shoots 338 all the time. I have taken turns with it silhouette shooting. It is very accurate. The weapon has had very little done to it.
