I am the 2nd owner of this rifle. The original owner commissioned the build through Dan Ross and was unhappy with its performance. He sent it to CHPWS where Dave Clarke made it right. His words, not mine. All i know now is it shoots straight as an arrow and is loads of fun.


  • Receiver is a 1960's Remington 40X 6-digit action (31032B). I wish i could give you an exact year but Remington's historian said 1960's.
  • Trued, stamped, clip-slotted action with DD Ross 30 MOA lugged rail on top.
  • Barrel is a 24" Schneider 1:12 stamped RTE-P with a MB762SSAL/RE brake
  • Stock is McMillan A4 molded in OD, Sniper fill, lightly rattle-canned to look the part
  • Bedded PGW NV Rail
  • Marine-Tex epoxy bedded per USMC spec
  • Bottom metal and recoil lug are DD Ross parts
  • Trigger is an M24 and comes with the Trigger profile sheet
  • Harris BRM-S Bipod w/ KMW podloc
  • Round Count is 269 (All FGMM 175gr SMK's)
Lastly, the rifle has been freshly cerkoated in graphite black.​
Comes with all of the original boxes for each accessory as well as the USMC Tube Data logbook and USMC TM manual. New Eberlestock 52" Drag Bag included with full asking price purchase.​
Price is $3600 shipped.
Will only entertain serious cash offers. NOT SPLITTING ANYTHING / ABSOLUTELY NO TRADES!

That’s an M40A5 with the current modifications (MB and PWS NVG mount). Looks to have been modified since the books were stamped (so it appears).

Funny, because it looks identical to the A3 I used when I went through Scout Sniper School. So, please be advised that before you publicly trash someone’s post, send a PM.

Gunny, out.

What type of groups can this get? Are we talking half moa or more in the .2s?
I’ve shot 1/2MOA and groups in the .4 range. Rifle loves 175gr FGMM. I’m sure someone with the time to develop a load and test fire could tighten it up
