Awesome looking rifle and thanks for standing in the breach in Afghanistan.
 
Re: My .308 Built by Russell at SSC

Just a side note guys, I am out of the Corps. Been out since 2005. I work for a security contracting company now. Don't want people to think I'm faking the funk or anything.
 
Re: My .308 Built by Russell at SSC

Looks great man. Russell sure builds a hell of a rifle. I just got mine about a month ago. I haven't shot much over 1/4 MOA @ 100 since I've gotten it. No further out than that it changes a little, but still sub moa, and the problem isn't the gun, it's me. Nice rifle man.

Very reasonable. You'll have to contact SSC for that man. And thanks.
 
Re: My .308 Built by Russell at SSC

Why such a short barrel? Wont you lose a lot of fps? How accurate do you think it'll be?

Because it's my trunk monkey. I lose a little FPS but nothing significant. Extremely accurate.

Re: My .308 Built by Russell at SSC

Very beautiful! Must be a dream to shoot.
 
Re: My .308 Built by Russell at SSC

What a awesome looking rifle! I love the camo you picked out for it. My buddy here in Alabama had Russell build him a rifle last year and it is a very nice rig as well. SSC does a awesome job and build stupid accurate rifles. Happy shooting.
