The .338 Lapua Magnum is known for its long-range capabilities, typically effective up to 1,500 meters (about 1,640 yards) or more, depending on the specific load and environmental conditions. Some skilled marksmen have successfully engaged targets at distances exceeding 2,000 meters (approximately 2,187 yards) with the right ammunition and conditions. Its design allows for high ballistic performance, making it a popular choice for long-range shooting and military applications.

No such caliber. Sorry. If you man the Lapua .338 Magnum, drop will depend on the ballistic coefficient of the bullet being used, it speed, etc.
Depends on muzzle velocity, projectile weight and distance.
Most of your normal medium/big game calibres can do it, but, realistically, to be able to shoot at that range with a feasible degree of accuracy and hit probability, you'd be better off getting into cartridges such as the .300 Winchester Magnum, .338 Lapua Magnum, etc.
Oh, dude, like, totally! Browning does make a safari bar that can handle the 338 Lapua round. It's like the perfect match for those big game hunting adventures. So, yeah, if you're into that caliber, Browning's got you covered.
