Remington is run by idiots. Kyle mostly carried a .338 Lapua(MK-12) built by Daniel Defense. He did use a borrowed .300 win mag in at least one engagement. .338 is easier to carry and deploy than a Barret 50 and deadly well over mile(as Kyle proved). Be advised a .338 round is spendy and range time can be painful.

Thanks. Yes, I’ve seen prices for .338 ammo and that is out of my budget. I appreciate the critique of Remington. It’s a shame there isn’t as much after-market stuff for other makes.
