A friend loaned me his Mossberg MVP .308 Long Range, so I decided to get feel for it at 500 yards. Given what I saw, I expect it can stretch out to much longer distances pretty easily. I might need to get one of my own to confirm that.

Thank you very much, France
You have to remember, this is a bench rifle and not meant to be used in such manner you used it. So I think accuracy could be better than what you got. Also, a bubble level will help so much. But what do I know? I’m nobody.
Imagine a .300 blackout.
Great video. I own this same rifle and love it. Mossberg may be known for their shotguns but they also make an outstanding long range hunting rifle.
Sorry if this was indicated in the video but what kind of scope are you using? Thanks
Looks like the action works really smooth too.
good video. looking into long gun to hunt boar. what did you do with all that used bras? if you dont handload, I do :)?
What power scope are you using?
Where could I find a place like this to shoot at in Pennsylvania
GREAT video, I'm looking at a MVP / LC in the 556 .. I think you convinced me to get me one and drive some nails…. 😎
I know this is an old video. With that said, this rifle is light weight. Its accurate enough for target shooting inside 600 yards. With your typical 150 grain deer load, its more than capable of putting down a deer inside 300 yards. ( further if you use the more expensive specialty ammo). You can't go wrong with that rig. As a bonus, if you live in the correct state, you can put a can on it and you have the ultimate stealth deer rig.
Are you sure it's .308? I thought you are talking about 5.56…=D
.308 should work well on 800 yards and even farther as far as my experience. And sure, Moss MVP is well rounded rifle.
May I suggest a good optic primary arms4-14 x 44 primary arms ACSS retical for a 308/7.62×51 Cartridge that will give you your holdovers and bullet drops on the weight of bullet that you side and for. Preferably Preferably a 150 grain to 168 grain bullet in either Softpoint or FMJ. I have these optics on quite a few of my rifles in various forms. The glass is exceptionally clear for the price point and the scopes are absolutely awesome
well, did you get one?
What scope do you have on it?
great video and Great gun love mine ,308 it works very well on 155gr. Federal FMJ at 100 yds.
How hot was the barrel and did that effect your accuracy?
I had a MVP 308 16 inch mossberg bolt action rifle. The bolt was so ruff it was insane. It was not a smooth action. I even sent it in to have mossberg look at it they replaced the receiver and it was still like that. this is literally the worst bolt in terms of smoothness. I sold it, other people have reported the same problem with the roughness of the action when cycling rounds. Go with a Savage 10 FCP SR or a Ruger Precision really smooth bolt on both.
For the MVP LC .308 I have I load my own ammo and use Hornady match brass and ELD-X 178gr. bullets with Varget powder and get 2900 fps. Great shooter, no doubt. You can really see the value once you reload your own ammunition.
Nive vid. looks like a great rifle.
Please tell me what scope you were using. I have same rifle… love it
Being an M14 collector this MVP rifle is my bolt action of choice due to M14 magazine acceptance. Its always good to have interchangeability. Either its ammo, magazines, or parts. Ammo and magazines in this case.
What are the best metal magazines to use with this?
Love how the 308 takes ar10 and m14 mags
Looks like i have to take a trip down to the local retailer.
How was the bolt . I heard a lot of complaints with the action on the bolt
Nice shooting, nice rifle – thanks for sharing 🙂
I wish they made this gun in 243
What's the background music? Pretty cool!
Hey was that a vortex 4-12×44?
Any chance for a review on the TC Compass?
Nice rifle I have one in a LC chassis 308 and I've taken mine out to 1000 yards I have my own video at 900 yards good reliable gun so far mine likes the 175 sierra
Ah the west desert. Shooting out there Monday.
When are you well and getting well know guys going to get together on this income stream robbery, by you tube. Anyone know of any action please get back. As for this vid. I have one of their shot guns and this 308 look like my next wall hanger.
Great video.I may have to look into this gun for that price and accuracy it's seems like it's a great deal.
Dang it. Western plains envy. From a tree infested Florida resident.
Ouch! Ears still ringing? Great video
Interesting fact about the magazine compatibility. However with a bolt action rifle how many magazines would one really need? I've had bolt action magazine fed rifles for 40 years. Aside from the magazine that came with them I think I have one extra factory one for each of them as a spare. Can't say that the spares were ever used on the same day as the one in the rifle. Sounds like someone needing to carry fourteen bumper jacks in the car trunk before going on a day trip.
who cares that its remanufactured. its only once fires brass, it is loaded on the same machines to the same high standards as everything else freedom munitions makes.
What shooting mat is that?
I love my MVP 308. Thanks for bringing others shooters attention to it. With in months of the MVP long range hitting the shelves the ruger precision came out and this rifle seems to get forgotten. But it several hundred $ less and a few pounds lighter. Still has merit.
Thanks
How does this stack up to the Thompson Center Compass?
The .308 rifle takes M14/M1A magazines as well as AR15 magazines. It uses a duel latching system that takes both. Very cool rifle
Is this available in 6.5 Creedmoor?
What music is this in the video?
