EDIT: Also, .338 RUM seems like a kind of random choice... it's a bear/moose/elk cartridge and it's mainly available in hunting rifles. I guess you can shoot your boss with a .338 RUM hunting rifle just as easily as with some other rifle, but any reason you chose it as an example of a good anti-personnel sniping round, instead of .338 Lapua or something like that?
