As mentioned above, '''.338 Lapua Magnum''' is a fearsome caliber and one of the deadliest available for use in Mazeworld. Its ability to kill or severely wound any human target not heavily armored to withstand its tremendous power makes it excellent for quick elimination.

All of the weapons chambered for this caliber are sniper rifles with natural scopes equipped, so in the rare cases an enemy with high armor would be facing the opponent, simply switching to [[Scope mode|scope mode]] and aiming at the head will do the trick, resulting, in the very probable case the shot lands, into a rather gruesome headshot, overkilling by far most creatures.

Due to the low amount of weapons compatible and the fact only one type of ammunition box exists (the 20-round box), the .338 Lapua Magnum caliber is a fairly rare cartridge. Ammunition conservation is more than recommended, and stocking up at a [[Gun shop|gun shop]] or [[Weapon shop|weapon shop]] may be a good idea if they have some, though beware of the prohibitive price of '''20 P$ per round'''.

The .338 Lapua Magnum (also referred to as .338 Lapua) is a high-caliber rifle cartridge developed in 1989, and suited for long-range sniper rifles.

It is a fearsome round, both for the contestant himself/herself and eventually his/her eventual enemies should he/she get a weapon chambered in this caliber. The .338 Lapua Magnum round is considered a top-tier round, due to its sheer power.

Real-life data

Popular in the military, hunting, and among the civilian long-range enthusiasts, the .338 Lapua Magnum's worth has been proved several times, being the round responsible for the longest recorded sniper kill in history, at 2,475 meters (2,707 yards). Among hunters, it is increasingly popular, as the round is able to stop any kind of game (although the efficiency on very large game, such as rhinoceros or elephant, is arguable).
