Havent shot the 338 lapua improved but have shot the 30-338lapua improved quite a bit. Shoots 230gr otm's right around 3400fps. Its an amazing cartridge and unbelievable how it bucks the wind. Anything less than 1200 yards is actually a little boring.

Please post pics when its done.

Magnum Machine has been shooting 338LMimp for many years.
They claim >20-25 reloads of brass.
AFAIK they have Redding bushing dies, and reamers, and suspect they would re-chamber an existing rifle or build one using a custom their own ATRS action.

Good Luck, YMMV.
