Alright guys, time for another question. I’ve nearly got my build done, super excited about that. 20” HB Howa .308 in an MDT LSS XL Gen 2. The rifle is going to be my new do all, so I’m looking for a solid scope for hunting out to roughly 350 yards and...

First post on here, figured you guys could help a ton! I’ve shot bolt guns my whole life, but never really delved into them past shooting and swapping scope bases. I’m looking at a new semi custom/custom bolt rifle for myself and I’m going with .308...

I appreciate it! I adjusted my come up on the fly without the app I used. App said 5.1 MILs, I was high, came down to 4.5 and was still high, 4 had me hitting the steel. I’ll have to go back into the app and do like you said.

I would love to see what you get with that. Thanks for the response!

Awesome, thanks for that. The box of ammo said 2820, which I assumed was out of a 24” barrel. Worked off of 2600 to start and was high at 500 so I’m trying to get a better idea of where I’m at until can get it on a chronograph.

Hey guys, just wondering about what type of muzzle velocity you guys have experienced. Have a 20” heavy barrel .308 Howa and haven’t had much chance to shoot it. Took it to 500 last weekend, but had no muzzle velocity data at all. Winchester Super X 150gr was what I was shooting (not ideal but...

+1 for ARP. My Grendel has an 18” ARP barrel and I love it. Great shooter

Man, thanks again for all the help guys. I think the price range of the pig and the SLIK fit me best and should be great for what I want to do

Again, thanks guys! The PIG and the SLIK are definitely looking like my top options right now

I appreciate all of the suggestions guys, thank you for the info. Definitely a lot of stuff to read through and decide on. The SLIK options that I’ve handled before have seemed sturdy enough but I’ve never shot off of any of them, only messed with a friend’s.

Awesome, thanks for the quick reply and the suggestion! I appreciate it.

Hey guys, first post in a while. I’m having trouble finding some threads through the search about this, so if you’ve got links to them let me know so I don’t bug you guys with redundant questions! I’m wanting to get my first tripod set up to use with my ARs and my bolt .308 in the MDT LSS XL...

I’ve used the 123 SSTs out of my 18” AR with great success. Shot 5 deer with it, only 1 without an exit wound and it dropped right where it stood from about 120 yards. This is him.

Ruger. Those RAPs are sweet little rifles

Thank you all for your replies and the info. Unfortunately I’ve run into some issues with my truck that I have to get squared away, so this will have to keep waiting for now.
