    I run a lot of High High end optics but I wouldn't hesitate to run one of the above.

    Id recommend FFP but you can go either mil or MOA to suit your preference.

    To learn its best to try shoot with experienced people and shoot often enough to gain confidence. Id recommend any of the practical rifle competitions across NZ

    Also I wouldn't recommend buying a 338 Lap...
    Why, what do you find unrecommendable with the Lapua?

    Basically there is no free lunch.
    300 gainers at 2900 push back.
    I have owned and shot a lot of big bangers including 50cal and now my biggest is a 300 norma mag shooting 225g.
    Even then you know your sending a fair bit of powder and projectile forward at a great rate of knots.
    Short awnser for your question is recoil and lots of it!
