The link above goes to a picture of ArmaLite's new AR-30M in .338 Lapua.  (Also available in .300WinMag and .308)

Mr. 5sub-

Just thought you might be interested, but there was a "AR" type autoloading rifle that shot .338 Lapua. It was introduced about 5 years ago by RND Mfg. of Long Mont, CO. They offer a optional Carbon Fiber barrel. Base price for the gun was $4,250.00.

LS, now that is a BIG AR !!  (Didn't know such an animal ever existed.)

Yeah, RND also manufactures a .308 version and of coarse .223 versions. It's a small company with a few good ideas.

RND 2000.......Talk about reach out a touch someone!! [shock]

I guess the only step up would be a Barrett .50.

If you haven't seen their website check it out.  Very cool!
www.rndedge.com if memory serves...

Where's the charging handle on that thing?  Is it on the left like an FAL?

Edited to warm up the link.

It's on the left side, like a FAL. In fact, RND offered that design before ASA.

L.S., please tell us this company is not uhh ummm ASA like ??  (If you know.)

There is a 50BMG AR monster, just got kicked off recently.


The RND guns are so damned sweet to see, JP Enterprises uses the RND matched lower/upper when building their Grade III guns.    To think, RND does an AR15 type, AR10 type, and then that god awful 338Lapua monster.    It used to be you could see a fair amount of info on their webpage but they redesigned it and it looks like you have to get all info through the mail now.    Zeideker has some info on the Edge rifles though.


As for the BIGGEST AR of them all.....

A local shop has an AR30 in 338Lapua mag sitting right next to an AR50, funny how small the AR30 looks in comparison to the AR50.

The long range nuts on biggerhammer.net have a few owners of AR30s and the guns are supposed to be quite accurate with the 338Lapua chambering.   I'd love to have a 338Lapua but I'd probably stick to 30cal. or 50cal. only, I enjoy being able to load certain bullets for the 30s that I just wouldn't be able to find for the 338Lapua.    Same goes for the 50BMG with some of the demilled pulls.
