Savage 11/111 vs Savage 110 BA 338's

I'm in the market for a long range rifle (1000 yd) and have narrowed it down to these two. I'm leaning towards the ba but it seems the consensus is the lrh is a bit more practical. Caliber choice would be 338 Lapua as I already have a 300 RUM.

Thoughts?

There was a savage 338l in the classifieds here not too long ago. Both are expensive to shoot, but id that 338 over 308 for that distance any day

I've been seriously researching these for a couple months now. I'm fixing to spend some bean on the 110ba. Just because of the stock on the 110ba. I could get a custom stock for the long rang hunter but it would defeat the purpose and would be easier to get the 110ba.

I agree. Looks like it'll be the 110 ba. As this will be more of a table gun I'm not too worried about the extra weight. I just don't think the long range hunter would be comfortable to shoot. Plus the looks of the 110 ba are just killer.
