Dallas, TX here, I just bought mine yesterday...love it in 308.
Are you still happy with the rifle?
Love your vids 👍
Thanks mate
I almost picked one of these up on sale for $400 us. I probably should have just done it even though I don’t really need another hunting rifle. Nice review.
Like the vids. Short, consice with some great shooting.
can you please test the winchester xpr 308
Existe in green?
Your back up.
308, should be tested at 300 yards, 100 is for 22lr.
Fantastic shooting, great video, I love this new rifle in 6.5 Creedmoor. I want the .308 version next. Save and reload that brass and your groups will tighten up mate. I suspect that your barrel got a little hot that lead to the widening groups. Thank you from Idaho USA!
Agreed, at 24" it gets a bit whippy till it cools.
Hey mate, I'm here from taufledermous.good channel.
Are these rifles discontinued in the states? I'd like to try one in 7mm-08. Cheers!
That's a beautiful rifle and nice shooting as well. It would appear by the way that the casting of the shadows on the ground shifted , that you shot all of these different brands of ammo simultaneously. The first group was the best group. Good shooting. However , it's highly probable that if you wait 24 hours in between trying each lot of different ammo that you could really narrow down the brand that that Mauser prefers. The harmonics need that much time to settle. However, I guess someone could luck up on the tack driver of the whole alloted run of rifles made in that model. Good shooting. From across the pond , cheers!
I have a question does it come into standard 7.92 x57 that's basically an 8 mm Mauser the original caliber for the k98 Mauser that is one hell of a big cartridge that is a Canon cartridge that's what the Mauser was made for and I do shoot a 308 and I also shoot the Mauser 8 mm from 1937 that's what stamped on the boat receiver it's a it's a checkingSlovakian VZ 24 8 mm German Mauser rifle and it's a 70-year-old rifle and I can drop anything at 200 yd on up with open sights
Great job. Who has a bench in the field. Shows the true application applied standing off a tree stump. Surprised you didn't shoot it from a tree stand. Thanks!
Most trucks have a nice stable front hood. Persoanally I had a harris bipod on my bull barrel 223 for varminting.
For some reason my DB10ELB308 does not like the Hornady American whitetail ammo either but my Browning 7mm08 makes one hole groups with them 139 grain and the 150 grain hornady precision hunters at 100 yards
When I started using the Federal power-shok the DB10 shot them like it was made for them both the 180 and 150 grains produced almost one hole groups including the federal fusion 180 grain same thing so that is what I use now
That Australia outback ammo 165 grain sierra BTSP looks good but would be hard to get in the US
My 7mm-08 hates them. Love the nosler 150gr BT with RL16 powder. And cci 200 primers. Lapua brass. Tack driver
Good video enjoyed it would like to see more, have a great time shooting 👍🏻
Now I have to get my 308 out this week ✔
I’m about to buy one of these myself. Do you still like yours?
My M-18 in 6.5 PRC won't feed reliably, making it totally unsuitable for hunting.
love mine in .308. my groups aren't as good as that but its defs the shooter ;)
🇦🇺😎👍Hey mate I’ve got one in .308 and I love it however the magazine catch does have a fault. Never put your finger up the mag well as the catch spring has no retainer. I flexed it and it fell out never to be found again… Ever !.. I took it back to the shop where I brought it ( Cleaver Firearms) where they fixed it for free. . Apparently the rifle has a design fault that can only be fixed permanently by buying an aftermarket stock , which I did…Great gun 🏁
left hand grip, right eye dominant ?
What's your thoughts on the stock of the M18 vs a Howa Hogue stock? I'm looking at getting my first hunting rifle and those 2 are on my short list.
Would go the m18 any day
@@shootingstuffaustralia8977 thanks
This is on the cards as my first rifle early next year. Camel shooting.
@@tun0fun ....a lever action 44 mag did cross my mind.
@@tun0fun ...yeah, the bloke who I'm to go out with has pointed out that bulls in particular are difficult....
Why would you want to kill a camel ? They’re pretty harmless.
@@craigkaschan4822 ...food. And also they are causing environmental problems and do extensive damage to cattle station and remote communities infrastructure.
Great video!!!
Nice video men, good job !
You were using the cheapest hornady ammo they make. Try SST or Hunter Precision. Nosler 165’s shoot very well out of 308 as well
Yeah but that PPU stuff is even cheaper than the cheapest Hornady ammo.
@@ReloaderJoe why spend 60$ for 20 when $22 does the same job. For hunting anyway. Probably get some of these bullets for reloading the ppu. SIERRA
SC2275
MATCHKING
30CAL, 175GR
HOLLOW POINT BOAT TAIL
PROJECTILES
@@GIANTSECRETS My point being that the PPU is (was) even cheaper than the Hornady and still shot better.
@@ReloaderJoe I am agreeing with you.
Totally agree. Likes anything Hornady and especially handloads with factory 2nd bullets, spot on with 180gn Nosler BTs.
NSW cops wouldn’t like you target shooting on private property.
Your not wrong there mate.
How solid is the plastic?
Very solid
I want one.
why you did not show the working of the bolt each time instead you skipped that part were you having problems you did not want to show us, thats what we think.
To speed up the video to much dead time and made the video boring.
@@shootingstuffaustralia8977 why in a hurry /life is to short do it right
@@johnsmith-by3yg it is done right
PPU Serbian company, very good ammo for money.
I bought this gun chamber in 308 it is not sub-moa even on the custom load. Stock and magazine suck.
Which do you thing is better this one or the Sauer100, thanks ?
Maybe something is wrong with yours, mine also 308 shoots sub-moa 5 shots with several stock ammo (150-178gr)…
