- This is my original .308 rifle that I built to serve as a hybrid between competition and what I used in the Marine Corps as a Scout Sniper.

Thanks for watching and keep your face on the gun.
What’s up man. I was one of your students in 2015. This video just popped up on my feed, had no idea you were running classes on the civilian side now. Sweet build. I will never forget my time learning from you and the other instructors. Some of the most fun I have ever had even if some of us in the class, myself being one, had some lady ankles.
They teach you that a scope is a weight bearing component to rest your arm on? This guy was never in the military. This is silly.
@@sasquatchrosefarts Scope Mount attached to the pic rail, with recoil lug. Bro he’s just resting his hand on it. You just hate him cuz you ain’t him.
@@sasquatchrosefarts nice name. Tells me all I need to know.
Hows it going Phillip! I am also a former student of yours. Didn’t know you had a channel. Just randomly popped up.
@@sasquatchrosefarts You do realize that this is him at 0:29 don't you.
You aren't the sharpest pencil in the box
Tremor gang here. That reticle really shines with windy days. Once you know the wind dot hold for one target, you know the wind dot hold for all distances within a reasonable time to shoot
Agreed. I’m not that good lol the reticle makes me look better than i am 😂 In wind idk if there’s another reticle I’d prefer tbh
That bolt looked ridiculous smooth
Phillip thank you for your service.
Been looking online for a build that I wanna start and stick with. This build is beautiful and very helpful for what to look into
Any well built rifle with a solid scope will be proficient...as proficient as the user behind it
Man that action sounded so buttery smooth and solid
Great work little brother. Informative and well laid out. Semper Fi. Scott in southern Oregon
“Keep your face on the gun” 🙌🙌🙌 brilliant
Don’t know what’s more impressive. That build or the camera recording. Sweet build. Semper fi
Always need more Tikka and 308 content 😁 good stuff as always
Beautiful build enough said an a beautiful explained video thank you sir!
This is the type of swag and "stunting" I like to see.
Keep it up!
We need some shooting videos on this build!?! :D cmon now?! Love the content.
Looks fantastic. I'm sure it performs even better in your capable hands.
308 is a bad choice if you want to dump a boatload of money into a custom rifle
Fantastic looking build
Awesome man thanks for your service
Sweet build. SAC built me something similar in 6.5x47. I love the action (which is a defiance ruckus tactical). They have built a few of my guns - their gunsmithing and head spacing is fantastic. It has made my reloading life easier. On tripod based shooting - I go back and forth between holding and never touching the tripod (which I think is more accurate but harder for follow up shots), I wish someone would do a vise or clamp that allows the rifle to slide back under recoil.
Check out Mark and Sam after work..
@@davegrimshaw7318 Love that channel. Thanks - checking the video out now. Thats exactly what I was talking about (3:20 mark). Wow. Thanks.
@@davegrimshaw7318 Yes. Mark and Sam after Work is working on an ARCA clamp mechanism that allows the rifle to slide back under recoil. Amazing no one ever thought of this before
women love 6.5 creedmore because it's perfect for women
Mabuhay. A Filipino-American Marine. That's badass. Don't mess with Pinoys. Just ask the Chinese at the Battle of Yultong.
Long barrel 308s just feel so nice man
I just got a 96' remington sendero 308 w / 26 fluted stainless barrel and i plan on new scope chassis trigger and bipod wish me luck. Great video, thanks.
Wow! Man I like the hold set up. That you for real. I would love to get into range competition it seams like real fun.
It's rare enough to find Pinoys in the Corps, even more so as a 03XX aaaand a 0317. SFMF. More power to the Pnoy03s out there! If you're Fil-Am 03XX, smash that LIKE!
Beautiful build
Good to see you back.... like the content
Got a simple bolt action with wood stock , 556 nato , 1/ 12 twist , 20 inch chrome lined barrel , ar 15 extractor on the bolt, weaver bases with 4x scope, action is a beefed up bruno 22lr copy. Its a cheap bolt action that is zeroed at 300 meters , 3 inches high @ 100 meters using 55 grain fmj . Im going to check it out on gophers this summer time. The rifle I own is a Norinco JW105 . I love my bolt action 556 rifle.
Nice build man congrats
Nice rifle build, I'm in the process of putting mine together.
Australian shooter here-man that is one sweet .308 custom rifle. I have a .308 custom ELR rifle but not to this level of expense. Mine is a custom weatherby short action on a 27 inch barrel sitting in a MDT LSS GEN 2 chassis with a vortex razor HD GEN II 4.5X27X56 Scope. I got a custom tuned muzzle break fitted to it and im of course reloading my own ammo with hornady brass and 168 grain match grade btp.Hot loads(46 grains of ADI 2208 powder) and im consistently getting 2880 fps over the chrono and grouping @ 4 moa @ 800 yards. Its sweet spot is 500 yards,1.5 moa consistently. My next build is going to be a 300 PRC ruger precision rifle build if the ammunitions industry gets their act together with reloading supplies for this particular cartridge in Australia.
I am assuming you mean 4" at 800 yds rather than 4MOA. 4" equates to 1/2 MOA whereas 4MOA at 800 yds is 32"
@@plrodrig123 .....he probly means the same at 500,....meaning 1.5", not 1.5 moa - which would be 7.5" group...?....
More of these videos🔥🔥🔥
you should do a tour of ur workbench area/setup. discuss some decisions that you made cuse its looking nice.
Love the .308 build brother! Good content and nicely articulated and explained. New subscriber. Hooyah IYAOYAS 💪🏾💪🏾

Nice Build!! I am an old school P.I.G I was Pigs with Dickenson and Hughs. Then came back and carried a M40a1. No I shoot my own M40a1, 2112 built by GA Precision Actual Unertl Rings and toped with MST 100. Just got another 40x "G" marked serial number with 40x trigger and bolt proper. Going to build M40a5.....looking for another MST 100. I Shoot F class in AZ.
thing is sick bro thanks for the template
10-12 ozs trigger pull! Wow!
Semper. Awesome video!
Very nice setup brother.

Semper fi brother! Nice video and nice rifle indeed!!!
Greetings from ROKMC Sgt.(Ret.)
Definitely sticking with my M1 Mac Mini. It’s a beast and I’ve never had a slowdown. Initially I was disappointed the HDMI does NOT scale to 3008x1692, but I’ve gotten used to 4k scaling at this point.
Not to sound weird but this has what to do with the video subject??
@@rdsii64he’s making a joke at being a keyboard warrior
@@That1Guy248 Now I get it. LOL
The lack of hdmi 2.1 on the m1 mac mini is completely unsat
A war saving soilder,
Cheers men
Jeezuzzz! Looks like a beastt
Best thing about the 6.5/6mm family is that it makes .308 reloading supplies always available and cheaper. 😂
Can you do a workshop walkthrough at some point to go through some of your tools and wall panel setups?
Damn nice looking rig 😊

Any chance you can provide a build list with part numbers and a recommended source for purchasing. Great build video. Thanks.
Email alan@shortactioncustoms.com and he'll get you squared away.
How to compare Kahles 5-25i vs Leupold MK5HD 5-25?
did you just say you set your trigger to 10-12 ounces? THATS WILD!
Great video. Can you do one about the m40a5. Whats its good at, what you dont like and why you wouldnt use that in prs? Thank you.
Love 308
More on this rifle in action please.
Question, what's your opinion on QD or direct thread for a suppressor on a precision bolt gun?
Hey. Loved the video. But I’m looking to maybe getting into 30 cal magnums. Eventually I’d like to be able to hit 800 plus yard targets. Then right after go hunt decent sized game with. Ie dear and what not. Barrel life is kinda important to me. I was considering 300 prc. But what’s your thoughts
Hey phillip . Have you think to do a video if 308 can match 6.5 cred moor by closing the exit of the barrel up to get 62000 psi? And yeah then do a destruction test to see how much pressure is safe before destroy a rifle.
New Sub here.... Have you shot the SIG Cross 308 or 6.5? If so, what's your opinion and also do you recommend the Arken EP-5 for it for a newbie?
Nice 😊
One day I’ll build my one out like that!!
"...one day..."
I only have Today ! . . .
@@fjb4932 hopefully you also have the $$$ 👍
Sup bro. First time watcher thank you for your service. My 2 boys loved watching this they want to be snipers in the military and police swat at only 7 and 5 years old. Beautiful gun.
Semper Fi brother
Great vid. What rear bag is that in the opening?
Can you recommend a 26" for the 1st gen Ruger Precision 308?! Very cool Vid.
NICE!
Dope AF
Semper Fi bro
Can you make video's about using scope
So after getting a little influence from you build i picked up the same chassis, question though. How did you fix the magazine play? there’s a bunch of play when the magazine is inserted
Is that 5001 mount high enough to run with a clip on or do you have to run a different optic in a 1.54”?
Semper Fi Marine!
That’s a slick weapon👌🏻
Do you add any , internal weights on the whiskey to help with muzzle jump ?
Ang Ganda ng set up ng rifle mo kabayan😁👍
I failed basic school the day before graduation.
Oh well. ☠️☠️☠️
Surprised you’re not using the NIghtforce ATAKR scope.
Semper Fi brother
reminds me of Remington M2010
Any Chance you are going to Show that gun workbench?
I’m looking into building this exact setup but I’m lost on which inlet I need to get. Any help?
No such thing as Former Marine! Decent video. Gunny
Super awesome video. I love shooting .308.... I have one that is set up in an MDT ESS stock... Using the Savage Model10T FCP Sr action. Much cheaper scope Thanks for sharing. Just sub'd
Wow… cool…. Thanks….
And I just subscribed
thoughts on 6.5 vs .308, do you prefer the 308?
How much does your set up weigh fully loaded with bipod?
308 ❤
What powder are you using with your 175smk’s?
varget.
why is no pan on the bipod is a good thing?
Man knows his s*. Nice build.
Do you do any prs 22lr and do you have any videos of them?
Yes please!
Why 10 twist and not 11 for the 175 gr SMK ?.
Where would i sign up for a class?
If you have a precision dmr I would love to see a video on that to. Trying to build one and need some ideas
Do u think a 4-20 night force atacr is ok for a SPR AR build 16 in inch barrel
Would run a 1-10 on a 16 inch spr but there no reason why you can't run a 4-20
Bad ass
❤❤❤
F*cking Beautiful
6.5 all day rah
This man got a SPX in real life.
Can you give an approximate price breakdown if that's not too annoying?
In USD probably around 8 or 9k
Curious here - how much is a build like this?
Around 7-10k depending on components and optic.
Wait a sec. What mod needs to be done in order to use AW mags in krg stocks?
i do have a rem 700 custom action with aw cuts, but i thought krg only worked with aics. The new c4 have aw listed as a option
Thank you for your service, sir. I do have a question though, are you sponsored by any of these companies? Lots of the biggest gun channels are beginning to be open about their sponsorships, and instead of turning people away, in many cases earns them respect and viewers. Similar to bodybuilders being up front about steroid use. Nice build sir.
What’s your true thoughts on .308
I’m a huge fan of the cartridge. I’ll always have one in my armory. Factory ammo available, recoil to help train as a middle ground between light cartridges and heavier ones.
@@velayo_0317 Yep the 308 has killed everything from grizzly bears to the taliban. My armory has both a 24 inch bolt action and a 20 inch 308 AR.
