r700 aac-sd
ss 10x42 w/side focus
egw 20moa base
burris tac extreme rings
brake i got from a hide member i dont recall the model
manners t4a/w mini chassis
bolt lift.
harris brms
badger tramp


so far it has been a consistent 3/4-1 moa gun with hand loads, but i am hoping to improve that, i am currently running the x mark turned down to 1.5lb.
i also plan on upgrading the glass once the viper pst's start to show up again,and when i do that i will get high end rings and base.

any other ideas to improve accuracy other than practice ?

Re: my build so far

Sw ammo would be a great improvement. I'm just chiming in because I like the set up.

I have taken a aac-sd that we bought for testing because i liked the ability.

I can use slow and fast powders, heavy and light projectiles. The 190 subs shoot great, just very good for an all around rifle.

I think your set up is great, keep up the loads, you should easily get in the 1/2 moa range.

Re: my build so far

that's what I'm shooting for is 1/2moa. I have tried varget and win 748 powders maybe I will try reloader 15. I am trying to keep a 175smk in the 2600fps range.

i use to run a sps varmit in .308... it would hang around .55-.75.... try smk 168 47.0 gr IMR 4350 in a mil casing with a cci BR#2... also increase the overall length slightly and see what the throat on your rifle is like... you will be amazed what you find out...

also all of the .308s ive had... all loved imr 4350...just a thought tho....feel free to get at me if ya like

Re: my build so far

I will try some 4350 and also try changing my oal, I was Able to put 3/5 in one hole running 44.5gr varget,175smk,2.8coal but it seems like I always get a flyer or two.

Re: my build so far

every rifle is different....

but to me a compressed load seems to make the most sense for a consistent burn.....
