I have read and read and read on this build and have come to the conclusion that now I might have too many options. I have narrowed down my build and would love to have some constructive criticism. I am doing this build off of a Remington 700p action that I currently own. I am using the rifle for canyon to canyon shots on elk and high desert hunts in WY. I would like to use 300 bergers for the ammo.
Here is the list:
Mcmillan A3 stock with bipod stud
30" barrel with spiral flutes, sendero type w/ 1-9 twist
CSR 4 port muscle brake
tactical bolt knob
Wyatt's 4.0” cf box mag
recoil lug
square true and lap action
chamber in 338 edge
tune trigger
bed action
fluted bolt
cerakote flutes metal color black action/SS barrel
OPTICS:
nightforce 5.5x22x56
NF rings
NF 20 MOA base
What do you guys think? Am I forgetting anything? Are there better options? Should I go with an aftermarket trigger? If so, what brand?Is the twist that I have selected the right twist? I am very open minded in regards to this build and am willing to take any constructive criticism or any ideas on how to make this build better. I only want to build it once! Thanks in advance for all your advice and help.
