Ray Romain in Brockport, PA has the reamer. He's built quite a few for longe range hunting and 1000yd benchrest competition. He also has a reamer for the 338 Tomahawk.

I've had a chance to shoot the new 338 Tomahawk. It's pretty sweet. Olspark has a 1lb jewell trigger on it. I believe the barrel is 31 1/2" w/out the kdf brake on it. It recoils about like my 6.5. Pretty comfortable and the targets he's been shooting are impressive. Groups are approaching the low .2's I would say.

Billy, you're correct. Even with a custom gun that is capable of shooting 1/2 moa to 1000yds you have a certain amount of human error. That's why we still shoot within the limits of our equipment while hunting. If you're ever in the area, look us up and you can be the trigger man. We have been known to turn skeptics into long range hunters

Mike Gallop of In-Scents fired a first shot kill on a deer last year at 545yds. He had never taken a deer further than about 150yds. The reason was good equipment and a good shooter.

If you can't see the ground hog in Petey's pic...you should have seen the one Olspark was zeroed in on at 1640yds!
