Consider new section: "Comparison to .338 Lapua Magnum"

I did my best to interpret the last part under 'Design history'. I made it a paragraph on it's own, since it was presumably trying to explain the performance difference between the .338 Norma Magnum and the .338 Lapua Magnum. Such information should be fact checked, and if more supporting information can be found, perhaps it deserves to be a new section. -- Sentimex (talk) 18:07, 25 September 2024 (UTC)
