U.S. OPTICS - ER-25
the gun I got from Cabelas and was $1,530 or something around that took it home the same day....they said that the reason we can take long range rifles home like this, is because its a different policy than handguns and smaller firearms like AK-47's exc.... I think (personally) it kicks less than my Remington 700 7mm Mag.

The Scope is a Vortex scope MOA mil-dot ....6x30x50

the scope is retailed for around $1,100 , I got it with the military discount so I got the scope a little cheaper, but that is the price regularly for it ... so all in all.......... 1500 + 1,100 =$2,600 or so in total. vs 8-10k for the barrett without a scope... that's one HELL of a bargain.

and if you think about it ....... $1,500 Lapua Magnum vs $9,000-10k Barrett and the Lapua shoots as far and is as accurate , but for 7.5k less, that's a bargain worth investing .

and the ammo, though still expensive ...not as expensive as the Barrett. I think with the Barrett it costs you around $20 a shot ..... the Lapua is $10 a shot.... I have a buddy that reloads his own shells ( has the same gun as I do, but its the 110 BA version instead of the 110 FCP ) and its cheaper to do it that way instead of buying new ones regularly , plus you know exactly what your shooting everytime versus say.... new bullets.
