First long range bolt gun build

Hey I resemble that remark, I even own a 308🤔. I just hope to live long enough to wear out all the extra barrels I have around the house🤣
I’ve never really been around a .308 that wasn’t heavy. I sighted one in for a guy the other day that was pencil barrel very light and was in for a real surprise when I shot it like a 26 pound match gun.
 
Yep my first one I didn’t have as brake on it. My son tried it and thought he broken his shoulder. My current used one is 21 lb and has a great muzzle break. Even worse is the 30-06 my dad put together in the 50s that may hurt those behind the gun as much as the thing in front!
