I'm a 308 guy and about 30 years ago I met a retired Marine at the range. He had a Chandler built 308 and it was the most accurate 308 ive ever seen. He let me take 10 shots that day, i shot it many more times later on in life. We became friends and he taught me how to shoot his way and I'm forever grateful to Mike the Marine. Sometimes I wonder where that Chandler Rifle is now.
I totally agree. Anytime I see a suppressed bolt action video I usually watch it no matter what just hear the sound. There’s just something really cool about them. Thanks for watching and thanks for the comment!
I built an M40A5 some years back on a Remington 40X barreled action from Remington's Custom shop. I shoot mainly 600 yard Matches in F Class and the rifle will shoot better than I can. The barrel is a 26" medium heavy barrel and it loves 168 match and M118LR ammo. Enjoyed your video.
HAH, I have a converted Specwar 762 as well. I've had that can for 11+ years lol. It currently sits on a PAP M92 SBR I built years back with a VZ58 side folder. That gun is heavy and so is that can so they are perfect for each other. It's a novelty at best so none of that matters but it's cool to know that there are others out there still repurposing quality old cans and still running them to this day. I have a HUB converted AAC SDN-6 as well that I've had for 13 years now, it was my very first can I ever purchased. I just built a new elk and mule deer rifle for this upcoming season and it's in .308, so it's safe to say that I am fan after all of these years and it still puts in work and gets it done.
The US Army BCT in 1969, the training weapon, the M-14 service rifle 7.62x51/308W. The purchase of the Savage 110 Tactical 308W. Drop the factory barrel to Criterion barrel 22” hand lapped match grade, but the need for a lighter weight rifle changed to BSF carbon fiber 24”, dropped 1.25 pounds. The factory stock gone, to KRG Bravo arca rail, NV cap backbone mount, factory bolt body changed to PT&G bolt body, and some other changes. 7.62x51/308W full circle since 1969 Army transition to the M-16A1 - Vietnam War.
@longrangeprecisionshooters8935 Both are built here in Reno by my good friend on Stiller Tac 30 actions, with Schneider barrels. One is 20" and the other is 24". I'm not a competitor or anything cool like that, just a humble Patriot who believes the 308 still has its place. My friend builds the same rifles for Reno and Washoe County SWAT teams, and he had a contract to send quite a few units to the Panimanian International Police force. I have hunted Elk, antelope, and deer with them as well. And I have named them "Ranger" and "Delta" in the Strelok app..

I believe that the Lord's cartridge is the 30 ought 6. Very versatile and plentiful. And on average... It's the same cost as the 308. Although... If you want an AR platform weapon in 30 ought 6 it's going to be insanely expensive. I purchased my first AR 308 a few weeks ago and I love it. 416R stainless steel barrel 20 in long heavy profile. I absolutely love it. My reasoning for saying that 30 ought 6 would be God's cartridge is because it is more versatile than the 308. Just hear me out... On the low end of bullet weights for a 308 you can also find the 30-06. But when it comes to finding the heavier of the two... I have not seen the 308 outweigh the '06 on the high end. Truth be told... Unless you are shooting at extended long ranges... If you can't get it done with a 308 you're not going to get it done with a 30 ought 6 and vice versa.
.30-06 is just old school, with modern powders you just don't need that case volume to get a ~200 gn pill going 3k fps. And like you said yourself, those heavier loadings don't really end up translating to any actual increased versatility i.e. most any game you can take with a .30-06 can be taken by. I used to make.308 loads that'd send a 215 grn berger bullet at 2,500 fps from a 20" barrel, was definitely enough for the stoutest mulies in my area. I'm from s. arizona so our white tails are like 15 lbs, don't usually use .30 cal on em as such.

@AldebaranIsAstar it’s not my scope. This is borrowed from a buddy. That being said he’s got the sunshade on it which enhances his performance if you’re shooting in dawn/dusk type situations.
Great video cuz! If I’m not mistaken, that Specwar 7.62 is the same suppressor you had on your rifle when you killed your first deer. It was a great hunt!
@@nmelkhunter1 true, but when you’re running predatory hunts where you may have the potential of multiples coming in on one stand, suppressors are game changer to killing more coyotes or hogs
Audio levels are too hot. Dial the channels before they hit red. Compressor and limiter are not optional plugins. I can stick with a mildot on a 308 if im not shooting prone bc with that recoil management an enhanced reticle is not useful.

For lo, the artisans didst charge a great tax upon the purchasers of the 1911 so that the lowly field worker could not afford one. And the profaning of the internal parts didst render it unworkable when the dust of the land fell upon it, and these profaners didst try and fit more rounds of ammunition into the magazines than the holy number of seven, appointed for the .45. 5 And lo, they didst install adjustable sights, which are an abomination unto the Lord.

308 has aids. The 6.5 creedmoor is just a better choice these days if you are buying a new rifle. Ammo availability is comparable now to 308 in most places, way better for long range, and less recoil. SHTF rifle I would want a 308 too. That is why I have both. Those are my baby guns. 7 PRC and 300 PRC are my hammers.
@@longrangeprecisionshooters8935 I am just thinking with 7.62x51 being a nato round there might be more out there. My AR10 with a Criterion 6.5 chrome lined barrel would be superior for long range shots.
The other calibers are pointless when 308 really can do it all. Lastly with the modern high bc 30 cal projectiles and the fact 308 can be hot rodded a bit it basically beats 6.5cm, plus 308 is just deadlier for hunting.
@@Alphasaurus-fq7nu The other calibers are pointless? Lol not quite. 308 does not hold a candle to 300 or 7 PRC. Not even the same ballpark. You must be a die hard 308 guy who is in denial about the fact that it is easily beat my modern cartridges. I have one and I reload all my ammo. I know what it can do. I can run my 6.5 hot too with Alpha brass and small rifle primers.
Long action is the dealbreaker on it for me. Don’t get me wrong, I like long actions but short actions are just so much easier to use, faster and more modular.

@@longrangeprecisionshooters8935 no kidding that’s awesome. I should send mine in it’s super old. I considered Ecco machine and thought it would be cool to shorten it a few baffles as well. But can’t go wrong with the oem.
@@DAP-1776 so glad I did it. It’s made this Suppressor so much more usable.
I've always wanted to build something similar. but now I don't know. should I just upgrade the .308 I have (ruger american rifle) with a better barrel and stock, build up a 700 action, or a bergara action barrel stock, etc? will the better parts make me a better shooter. nope. but when you start adding up upgrades then its like I could of just bought a better rifle. Bro, I need a parts list for all your builds.
Thanks for watching bro. I try to go through the builds in the videos now. I cover most of them, but the upgraded one in this video is an
-impact 737 action
-Manners night stalker
-triggertech diamond
-20 inch Bartlein carbon fiber barrel
-area 419 adapter

Waiting to be the 308th like on the video....
Hahahaha that’s awesome!!
Slung a lot of 7.62 Nato lead down range while in the Army. Purchased a 308 Rem 700 as close to a M24 as I could afford as a young, poor soldier in the 90s.
That’s awesome. The m24 is another fun piece of firearm history! Thanks for the comment.
6,5x55 is the right answer 😊👍🏻👍🏻
Another good one for sure. Thanks for watching!
Me- I'm not buying anymore 308W's
Also me -watches this video
Sigh, guess I'm off to buy another 308W, I forgot I had an M40A1 on the dream rifle list, it's now been replaced with a modern version.
Those are some cool looking rifles
@@rockynrolling6206 thanks brother. Can’t ever go wrong with another rifle ….especially not when it’s an M40!!!
Why is your scope so long?
@AldebaranIsAstar it’s not my scope. This is borrowed from a buddy. That being said he’s got the sunshade on it which enhances his performance if you’re shooting in dawn/dusk type situations.
Great video cuz! If I’m not mistaken, that Specwar 7.62 is the same suppressor you had on your rifle when you killed your first deer. It was a great hunt!
That is correct! That was the mk13 mod 5….smacked at 300 yards!

@@longrangeprecisionshooters8935 You’re welcome for the comment. But suppressors don’t fit in rifle scabbards and it just one more thing to mess with.

Audio levels are too hot. Dial the channels before they hit red. Compressor and limiter are not optional plugins.
I can stick with a mildot on a 308 if im not shooting prone bc with that recoil management an enhanced reticle is not useful.
Yeah the wild was wild so I had to do voice isolation which throws the levels. Tough when the wind is kicking 20 mph. Either way, thanks for watching.
Leave the volume alone. You can turn it down, I can't turn up more.

4 Their artisans did hang all manner of foul implements upon the 1911 and did so alter it that it became impractical to purchase. For lo, the artisans didst charge a great tax upon the purchasers of the 1911 so that the lowly field worker could not afford one. And the profaning of the internal parts didst render it unworkable when the dust of the land fell upon it, and these profaners didst try and fit more rounds of ammunition into the magazines than the holy number of seven, appointed for the .45.
5 And lo, they didst install adjustable sights, which are an abomination unto the Lord. For they doth break and lose their zero when thou dost need true aim. And those who have done so will be slain in great numbers by their enemies in the great battle. a

8 And being a deceitful spirit, the lord of the underworld did make these plastic pistols, filled with tiny springs and parts that were easily lostc, and they were unmenable to the artisans of earth so they were unable to muck much with the design, and lo these pistols did appear to function.

Awesome builds !308 is still good in my book . 175 grains are accurate out to eternity it dont matter how slow they are going. Also theres nothing m40 about your rifles unless thats what they identify as.
Haha…. that’s right they identify as M40s! I totally agree on the 175 SMK by the way. Thanks for watching!
My handloads with 178 eld m bullets are doing 2750 from a 22 inch barrel that’s better then any gay 5 round
45 acp. Mr. Browning's masterpiece.

18x overkill for 308 in what universe?
Remember shit talking is easy. Writing it out is sleazy 🍌
308 has aids. The 6.5 creedmoor is just a better choice these days if you are buying a new rifle. Ammo availability is comparable now to 308 in most places, way better for long range, and less recoil. SHTF rifle I would want a 308 too. That is why I have both. Those are my baby guns. 7 PRC and 300 PRC are my hammers.
Hahaha I don’t disagree. Thanks for the comment. This interesting though…my end of world rifle I’m probably grabbing a 6.5 creed
@@longrangeprecisionshooters8935 I am just thinking with 7.62x51 being a nato round there might be more out there. My AR10 with a Criterion 6.5 chrome lined barrel would be superior for long range shots.
@@MontanaWild78 yes NATO rounds would be ideal
The other calibers are pointless when 308 really can do it all. Lastly with the modern high bc 30 cal projectiles and the fact 308 can be hot rodded a bit it basically beats 6.5cm, plus 308 is just deadlier for hunting.
@@Alphasaurus-fq7nu The other calibers are pointless? Lol not quite. 308 does not hold a candle to 300 or 7 PRC. Not even the same ballpark. You must be a die hard 308 guy who is in denial about the fact that it is easily beat my modern cartridges. I have one and I reload all my ammo. I know what it can do. I can run my 6.5 hot too with Alpha brass and small rifle primers.

First off, I am a believer. Secondly, it’s a play on words and kind of a joke in that clearly he doesn’t have or need a cartridge.
