dan belisleI haven't used the AR-30, but I have a 338 Lapua in the Sako TRG-S (M995). Ballistically, i find the cartridge no better then the 340 Wby (2960 fps w/250 gr bullets). The brass, however, is great stuff. Perhaps the longer barrel of the AR-30 will allow a performance boost. - Dan
My mate and are on an order list for one of these AR 30's but who knows if we will be able to get it to Australia. Hope it does not come in the next couple of months as I am strapped for cash at the moment.
