Man I'm pumped about this one! This is my new custom long range precision rifle and also my first ever .338 Lapua Magnum build. So what is it? Here we go, Alamo Precision Rifles put together a 26" Bartlein MTU barrel with AAC 90T muzzle brake and Defiance Rukus Tactical action. They also installed the awesome Trigger Tech Diamond 2-stage trigger. APR also went ahead and cerakoted the assembly in FDE. Once I received it, I dropped it into my Accuracy International AICS AX chassis. I'm using a WieBad Gear cheek piece, B&T Atlas Bipod, and short action precision 2 round holder. Optic setup is the amazing Vortex Razor HD II 4.5-27x56 with Horus H59 reticle & Vortex Precision Matched 34mm rings. Lastly, I'm using the US Optics side folder bubble leveler. And that's the build! In this video we go through it and stretch it out to 2,000 yards with Hornady 285gr ELD-M. Really looking forward to getting my suppressor so we can go again but more "quietly."

I wouldn't call it useless. If you need one more shot, it's a heck of a lot faster than swapping out the mag. It's probably cheaper than an extra mag too.
Brother she is absolutely amazing and beautiful. I just got all my parts for my custom uppper AR-10 in 308. But then my wife and I lost our jobs and don't have the money for my lower receiver.
@@TexasPlinking thank you for that. I have always wanted one. It looks like a baby Barrett. Even has a custom 24" diamond fluted barrel and free float Keymod hannd guard and a custom 308 cal Barrett break on it. I also have a custom Luth-Ar MBA-3 Stock for it.
can you do a camera at the plate and then shoot the 338 and cheytac together? always interesting to see the difference in energy on the target at distance
I dont have a Lapua but have a custom 338 RUM and it can be a blast to shoot as well been shooting a 300gr Berger VLD at 2750fps and it is a tack driver... would love to get a Vortex Razor HD Gen 2 but in the MOA set up... very cool set up you have
$4.50 per shot? You need to roll your own. Reloading will get you easily under $1 per shot. Check Barrett for once fired Lapua brass, H1000 powder, Federal LRM Match primers, and those same Hornady 285gr ELD-M bullets. Tailor the load to your rifle and magic will happen.
I know this video is over a year old but man this is a nice rifle! I also love those led light indicator targets. What brand are they, if you remember them :) That is super nice and handy. What an impressive rifle. My dream rifle is to have something like this lol do I need it absolutely not but do I want it absolutely yes lol
Meh dont be too hard on yourself. Id love to be able to just touch one of those here in my country. Yet alone have the pleasure of shooting the thing hahaha The fun is getting it scoped in, if you hit it every time it gets boring reallll quick ;)
Man is there ANYWAY you can give me the price For the gun I don’t need any info on the optics or muzzle break or anything just a gun that you had built and the trigger and how to get the trigger installed please thank you so much

Hi from the UK. Ive got an Accuracy International AXSR in .338 lapua magnum. Mine is black. The barrel has been cryocooled. I feed it home loaded Hornady A-tip. I can happily shoot sub 4 inch groups at 1500 yrds. No bipod.
@@rustyshackleford8149 not really. 100 rounds for $450? Yeah.. I don't care who you are, absorbing that isn't possible. Imagine every weekend spending $250 to shoot 50 rounds through it. Idgaf, i'm buying a 50bmg lol.
@@floored3078 50 BMG should be about $2 a round for the regular run of the mill stuff, but hand loading should drop that to a $1 or so for Match grade loads.
Ryder276 I agree, nice rifle and wonderful shooting, and explaining. You can double check me out I do think a mile is 1,760 yards? It's amazing to know that the slightest change at the muzzle translates to huge differences in impact. I've done well to 800 yards in High-power Matches but what he does is really amazing.
Yes. My targets were 2 MOA. That was not off the bench, nor with a bipod. It was with an M1 Garand, iron sights, a sling, jacket, and Matt - and thankfully the targets don't shoot back. P.S. I wrote that I did well to 800 yards. That was inaccurate; as I meant 600.
Never understood why the atf and fed regulates suppressors since they are not a firearm. You can buy full uppers all day long which a can is a part of....
Steve Macdonald Never heard that...in fact you can only get suppressors with a hunting license where I‘m from. On the plus side, no minimum rifle length requirements.
@@csmac3144a Never heard of suppressors being mandatory in Europe, but they are definitely encouraged because they're generally seen as a health & safety improvement as they minimise potential hearing damage and lower muzzle blast. In the few places in Europe where there are american-style barrel length restrictions suppressors can even make life as a gun owner easier since the length of the can is counted to the length of the gun as it is assumed it stays on during use. It's one of the few things that Europe is more well off compared to the US regarding firearms legislation. It's just a shame that on a continent where cheap suppressed carbines with 10 inch barrels are a legit possibility for the average gun owner, it's very hard to market one with a fun switch.
Theodore Hunter He said he paid $1400 for the chassis,the action is about the same price $1400 barrel blank can be bought for $355 have no idea what his smith charges to finish the barrel I found pricing under $300 +trigger$300 $1200 for tax stamp and suppressor.Total $4955.
Dude Broski Wow I gave $1499 for mine in July Grab A Gun has been running them for $1649.Im in Indiana.Gun shop actually quoted me $1399 in April but I waited cost me extra $100.My barrel was damaged on inside haven’t gotten it back yet.
@@steveyork8069 i may pay a little more at my gunshop but i dont mind. They ordered me like the only one they could find right now. And i always haggle prices on used guns with them. Hell the last gun i bought they threw in a free old glenfeild model 60... That little .22 is awesome. I buy local and support my community gunshops, that costs a little more but it keeps their doors open.
Dude Broski My shop is a little local shop too,has one employee that works while he doing his day job then he takes over at 3:30 till 7:00.He is also local Chief of Detectives on local police until end of year,retirement.I bought my Barrett MRAD in January for $4949.so he does treat me good.Ive spent a little over $22k in six years with him.I like to hear people supporting their local shops.W3 only have two maybe three Cabelas in our state, and they are high in $ are Rural King stores are the only place that compete in price as far as big box stores go.
Uhhh, where do you work? And are they hiring? It's like you're buying a new gun every week and they're all between $5k and $20k. I'm not envious... Well, okay... I'm overcoming my envy at the moment... Thanks for the vicarious experience for the poor.
Almost looks like triple C.. I watched a 13yo girl put a hell of a group in on that 2k target. Too bad that rang closed. Her round was based of Lapua I forgot what it was her dad was shooting a 375C AI
The scope that's linked in the build list doesn't look like the one that's on the gun? The one on the gun looks longer and a different color why is that?
I have a ALAMO rifle build in 6.5 creedmore and it has been the most accurate rifle I've shot. Those guys have it together!! That's a great looking 338 you just can't go wrong with alamo.
How heavy is it? The 338 really seems like the perfect compromise for a lot of factors, except overall weight imo, so I'm really curious. Oh, and yes, Vortex truly is an awesome company and their gear is solid.
This is similar to my dream ELR rifle American Rifle Company CDG Action(trying to find someone to make a bent AI style bolt handle) with ball bolt knob Benchmark 27" 1:8 twist VCC Contour chambered in 7mm PRC with a 3 port PVA Rugged Suppressor Brake AXSR Chassis with top rail triggertech diamond 2 stage TBAC bipod ARC m-brace mount ZCO ZC527 scope
I've got my 1st 338Lapua magnum,it came in a MDT LSS XL, chasse,and the 338lapua magnum is built by savage and it also has the accura trigger which is a two stage trigger it's awesome!!
I was looking for a mile plus gun and considered the 338lm and the 300prc. Ultimately went with the 300prc because it shoots targets at that range as well or better, and factory ammo was available for $2/rd instead of $5.
I do enjoy my Savage b111 338 savage. It's pricey. But what I am looking for is a optic that isn't the cost of a used vehicle currently. I do enjoy the vortex and I'm looking at the venom 5x25x56 so far. But I do not know how it can handle the recoil. I have the three port muzzle brake on tip. When you shoot it's a nice push. But I don't want to spend the money to find out I chose unwisely. Especially when it's pulling the trigger is between 6 and $7 a pull. It's not like shooting a 223? At all?
Can anyone provide me with empiric evidence of the comparative testing of the various .338 calibres? My personal preference is the .338 RUM, but I have no data. It seems most think there is only the la peur
I've got a 338 Lapua Magnum MDT LSS XL chasse and I've got a supressor on it to and a Harris by pod on it my 338LM was made by savage and it was ordered to come altogether only thing it didn't come with was the can and the by pod and the scope
Great video! You make look so easy! Any ideas on the 300 PRC instead of the 338? Did you consider changing the brake with a larger one for more recoil mitigation?
I've heard the 300 PRC has significant advantages but I just wanted to tick the .338 Lapua box haha. I'd like to get a 300 PRC built out sooner than later. And as far as the brake, I just wanted to make sure I could use my suppressor for when I get it and there is no bigger brake with the 90T mount. The recoil really isn't bad at all with this configuration though. I'm curious to see what it's like suppressed.
I too have always wanted to build a 338. If you don’t mind me asking and you can always inbox me roughly how much is the average you can spend on a nice build.
If you hear the report of that rifle..........you weren't the target.........Ever hear a 338 coming thru a window at 2 miles? Nobody does............hehehe
Taking the rifle out of the case I noticed you don't have it turned to protect the scope i.e. scope on the same side as the handle....what are you protecting by doing this if not your scope. I assume it's pretty expensive...
Sweet build Brandon. I finally was able to pick up a Christensen Arms ELR .338 LM with the carbon fiber wrapped stainless steel barrel. Can't wait to take it out at 1000yds and beyond :)
Is it more effective? Sorry im a gun noob! I just know the 50 calibre is larger but they both can shoot over a mile. Which is more practical or lethal?
@@mattc3368 As far as price goes the 50 BMG and 338 lapua aren't that far apart depends on where you get it but I would probably invest in reloading if you choose 338 I would do it one at a time In other words checking every step on each and every round to ensure accuracy and safety. Remember these rounds can produce the same amount of energy at 100 yd downrange than a 30 ought 6 does at the muzzle.
@@mattc3368 Barrett makes rifles in both of those calibers but there again you're talking a whole lot of money they are not cheap by any means. The XM109 and the MRAD and their variants. $$$$$$

But I don't want to spend the money to find out I chose unwisely. Especially when it's pulling the trigger is between 6 and $7 a pull. It's not like shooting a 223? At all?
Can anyone provide me with empiric evidence of the comparative testing of the various .338 calibres? My personal preference is the .338 RUM, but I have no data. It seems most think there is only the la peur
Damn...I wish it were only $4.50/round still. I was at TGE the other day and they had Hornady Match 338 going for $145/box🤦🏻♂️
On Saturday the 22nd, the temperature on my car read 117F in a parking lot. With >80% humidity on average; It's no joke. Good shooting, boss.
Rifle weight without accessories?
I do the same thing on my phone! I thought i was a weirdo, lol
Cool gun but why does it have Walmart shelving on it?
I've got a 338 Lapua Magnum MDT LSS XL chasse and I've got a supressor on it to and a Harris by pod on it my 338LM was made by savage and it was ordered to come altogether only thing it didn't come with was the can and the by pod and the scope
I love it when you get your bad shooting excuses in before you show your shots, lol
Great video! You make look so easy! Any ideas on the 300 PRC instead of the 338? Did you consider changing the brake with a larger one for more recoil mitigation?
I've heard the 300 PRC has significant advantages but I just wanted to tick the .338 Lapua box haha. I'd like to get a 300 PRC built out sooner than later. And as far as the brake, I just wanted to make sure I could use my suppressor for when I get it and there is no bigger brake with the 90T mount. The recoil really isn't bad at all with this configuration though. I'm curious to see what it's like suppressed.
I too have always wanted to build a 338. If you don’t mind me asking and you can always inbox me roughly how much is the average you can spend on a nice build.
If you hear the report of that rifle..........you weren't the target.........Ever hear a 338 coming thru a window at 2 miles? Nobody does............hehehe
Would’ve been nice to have an Ammo sponsor for this video’! Dang! Awesome!!!!
flavio castro this guy 😂 why, at $4.50 a round does it matter? Not like you have it.... or is there an option for ammo on COD?
9:00 dang its hotter than in sauna, assuming we all used metric system but no 🤭
regards from finland where its -27c atm or -16f :D
all this triggers you can buy are just such a SCAM, a real gunsmith can adjust 80% of the times a trigger down to 300g or less with the stock one
Taking the rifle out of the case I noticed you don't have it turned to protect the scope i.e. scope on the same side as the handle....what are you protecting by doing this if not your scope. I assume it's pretty expensive...
Your awesome fun to watch I’m thinking about getting my gun license then take a 338 Lappula and my hunting license as well
My god, what a masterpiece. I bow to you’re ownership!
Do you know how long is the forend (Key Mod rail) from recoil lug? Roughly of course. Thanks.
i'm sad that i'm no american, to shoot beautiful rifle's like this one, i would have this one in my collection off long rang rifle's? awesome video
My Lapua magnum savage was a costum build and it came right out of the box I was so darn lucky
Why do you disturb your move rifle before adjusting your scope? Won’t it alter your shooting angle and negate your wind age?
Nice, I want one.
What did that set you back ?
How far are you shooting the 6.5cm ?
Love the 338. Hate that CCC closed. Don't know where to shoot my 338 since it closed, recomendations?
338 lapua mag shooting over a mile? 🤔is this the new Chris Kyle
Love that legend
Sweet build Brandon. I finally was able to pick up a Christensen Arms ELR .338 LM with the carbon fiber wrapped stainless steel barrel. Can't wait to take it out at 1000yds and beyond :)
I'm in Fort Worth, Love going out to Triple C. Great place for lone range..
I still rather shoot long rang with a 50 Cal BMG.. When you just wanna reach out and disintegrate someone Long distance
Is it more effective? Sorry im a gun noob! I just know the 50 calibre is larger but they both can shoot over a mile. Which is more practical or lethal?
@@lunapetunia3778 BMG goes BOOM, I rather have it
*homeland security binoculars zoom in from a distance as your FBI agents gaze intensifies* 👀 🇺🇸
You gonna love the price of that ammo.
@Micheal Miles I heard 50BMG was cheaper to shoot per round. Price of gun verses price per round?
@@mattc3368 As far as price goes the 50 BMG and 338 lapua aren't that far apart depends on where you get it but I would probably invest in reloading if you choose 338 I would do it one at a time In other words checking every step on each and every round to ensure accuracy and safety. Remember these rounds can produce the same amount of energy at 100 yd downrange than a 30 ought 6 does at the muzzle.
@@michaelmiles6398 Thanks that was very helpful Both the 338 Lapua and 50BMG are 2 rifles im interested in buying someday. Thanks again
@@mattc3368 Barrett makes rifles in both of those calibers but there again you're talking a whole lot of money they are not cheap by any means. The XM109 and the MRAD and their variants. $$$$$$
Michael Miles I don’t think your gonna find any 50 bmg rifle for cheap
