Looks good. The only thing I'd do is get some lower rings. That setup would kill my neck.

Re: Cheap way to go

yea those are on my list too and adjustable cheek rest as well along with the trigger and scope level and a better bipod

2- things
Save up and get a Jewel. I have one on my 243 and love it. I can't say anything about other triggers because I have never used them but I like my Jewel.
How did you sell the plastic SPS stock for $150? I usually see them selling for $40.00.
Nice build!

Re: Cheap way to go

Don't mean to be a jerk, but is it really a .5 MOA rifle? Meaning, have you shot at the least 10-20 5-groups and they average better than .5" or did you just happen to shoot a couple good groups?

Re: Cheap way to go

Re: Cheap way to go

and yes this rifle would amaze you I hand load my ammo for it using lapua brass 175 smk 43g varget powder and federal gm 210 primers average fps is about 2573 and I promise you it will shoot .5 or smaller groups with the right person behind the trigger every single time with that load loaded right

It is pretty amazing what the factory barreled actions will do with the right hand loads.

Re: Cheap way to go

Im extremely pleased with mine and whenever I think I've figured out everything about adjusting for the wind at long ranges and everything I'm going to build my 338 ultra mag

Re: Cheap way to go

if anyone has and info with results they have had with a 338 ultra that they built it would b much appreciated loads, barrel, stock, muzzle break, what kind of accuracy they got, and how many yards it stays accurate thanks
