I own one of the Sako rifle chambered for Lazzeroni's .308 round (Warbird) and I think it is probably one the best long range hunting rifles on the market. But with the factory ammo costing $100.00 a box it damn well better be.

As far as the ballistics Lazzeroni provides being exagerated, I don't know because I personally have never clocked the rounds, but his bullet drop numbers seem to be right on. I am comfortable taking shots at 500+ yards with this rifle that I would never take with any of my other rifles. Not only does the round get out to those distances in a hurry, it has enough energy to still have tremendous killing power.

That being said, I would never recommend the any of Lazzeroni's rounds as all purpose rounds, they are just too damn expensive. I only use mine when I know I will be shooting at long ranges.

Hope this helps.
