I like that Hourous reticle also. Thanks for the positive comments everyone, this is why I love 308AR and I'm here to stay. Everyone is so awesome and have a positive attitude. As far as the cost of this setup goes I am afraid after I tell you what I have into this the love around here may fade...lol. My line of work has some pretty nice perks. Out of pocket I'm in about $2,200 with everything on the rifle set up. I traded the pistol strait up for a used R700 SPS 26" in 308 ($450) and the Benchmade was one-time issued to me at work. As for the ammo, I refuse to comment as you guys will hate me forever...lol. Thanks again guys, and I'll try to post more outside the exchange just a busy, busy bee...lol..

DNP Posted October 19, 2013 Report Share Posted October 19, 2013 Hate you?? Yeah, I guess so. I thought it was more of an extreme jealousy thing...but it could be hate. Nice gear man...well done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
98Z5V Posted October 23, 2013 Report Share Posted October 23, 2013 I spotted the folding chassis in a Las Vegas shop last weekend. The damn thing was FDE, too. I had a hard time walking away from it... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shibiwan Posted October 23, 2013 Report Share Posted October 23, 2013 I've been eyeing a Rem 700 LA for a while... just gotta decide what to get...338 lapua? 300WM? I'm leaning towards 300WM.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
98Z5V Posted October 23, 2013 Report Share Posted October 23, 2013 ^^^ At least that's not chambered for $6 bills... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Para308 Posted October 24, 2013 Report Share Posted October 24, 2013 I have the same rifle! I have been debating doing the exact same thing to it! Now I am extra motivated to do it! It will probably be next year though before I do it. I will post pictures. The ONLY thing I would do different is the bipod. My question is, though, why the glass bedding - since the whole point to the chassis is to not have to glass bed the rifle? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
USMC_0317_SS Posted October 24, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 24, 2013 Lot's of great comments gents. I truly appreciate all of the feedback !!! @Dane Armory: "Any chance you will ever make it to AZ for a meet " ? Pretty rare if I ever get out there. I was at "4 Corners" a few months back. Passed through on our way to CO for a wedding. @washguy: "USMC 'm throwing all my AR308 crap rifles in the trash after gawking at that artwork you have! geeeez damn fine weapon" ! Thanks buddy !!! Don't trash your AR platforms though. I have a sweet shooting DPMS SASS that definitely has it's place in my line up (and my heart). Each tool for the job...ya' Know? You wouldn't pound in a screw with a hammer, or drive in a nail with a screwdriver. Same as you would rather not patrol with a bolt action or prefer to take a 900m shot with a gas gun. The right tool for the right job. @98Z5V: "At least that's not chambered for $6 bills... " That is probably the biggest deterrent from getting a .338 LM...but, they are nice to shoot. @Para308: "My question is, though, why the glass bedding - since the whole point to the chassis is to not have to glass bed the rifle?" The reason I felt the need to add the bedding compound was simply because the recoil lug didn't fully seat against the surface of the chassis where the lug was designed to rest. I do agree with you completely on the fact that one should not have to apply bedding compound to a full metal chassis. I have 3 chassis rifles and this is the only one that needed any compound. I have built rifles in the past that I felt could benefit from some bedding compound. It's rare but if its not right, gotta' make it right !!!
