re: New Custom Build What Caliber Rifle?

So, I just built one.
Blueprinted 700 SS action, 308
Triggertech trigger
20 inch threaded remage SS barrel from Crown Ridge
MPA muzzle break
HS Precision Al Bedded stock.
Shoots less than 1 inch groups at two hundred yards. Went with 308 because I already reload it, if get stuck somewhere it is a common caliber, can always find rounds, great for deer, super accurate.
I am not against the newer fad calibers, I have a few. Just for a hunting gun I prefer to stick w traditional, easy to find ammo.
Gun is intended to be for white tails and similar out to 600 or so.
Matching it up with Vortex Razor HD II 3-18x50 on a NightForce mount and seeking rings.
Built it up and tested it. Took the barreled action to be coated last week. Should have it back in a week or two.

Sounds great. I have a triggertech in my build and I love it.
Best break I’ve ever felt on a trigger.
