Hi everyone,
I've noticed there are a lot of very knowledgeable members on this site and just wanted to pick your brains. I am looking into building a custom 338 Lapua and could use a few suggestions. I am leaning toward a Nesika action, McMillan A5 stock, and a 28" barrel with muzzlebrake(longer if necessary). I would like to keep the rifle under fifteen pounds in weight if possible. It would be used as a long range hunting rifle and a 1000+ yard target rifle.
Have any of you built a similar rifle? Do you have any suggestions? Do you know of any good gunsmiths that could build such a rifle?
Thanks in advance for your suggestions.
