    Whats the Recoil like compared to the 338 Luntaic? It looks like we may need to go to a bigger case to get the advantage with the 375, would it be possible to build a 375 Versico improved on a Barnard P Chey action? The bolt face would need to be opened up. Apparently it can drive a 400gr at 3250, and should give a big advantage over the improved Cheytac case.

    You could probably go with a rebated rim on the Vierso Mag? Not sure on the diameter of the VM case, does it fit in between the bolt lug cuts?

    Fired 21 rounds through my 338 Lunatic (18lb) and 24 rounds through the 7mm Fatmax (8lb) on Saturday, was starting to feel it on the shoulder at the end, but was good fun practicing banging steel plate...
    If it's not a first round hit you need to practice more
