I hope y’all enjoyed the video and thanks for watching! 😁🐩
I've been thinking about a 338 Lapua for my next precision rifle slash sniper rifle build. I was also thinking about some other 338 varients and wildcats. I was initially going to build a 257 because it's important that I have limited bullet choices or else I will load 100 different bullets 100 different ways and never get consistency.. my builder told me to stick with a 30 cal because of the bullet choices but he doesn't know me very well. I wouldn't mind a long barrel 308 and a long barrel 30-06ai
This video just confirmed my perspective on these rounds. .308 an excellent hunting/sniper round. 6.5 Creed is a great flat shooting target round (this dog will hunt too). .338 Lapua is just an absolute BEAST!
I don’t think anyone would lent Scott any of their firearms nowadays cuz you know he likes to blow them up 😂
learn how to close a bolt action rifle.
Want too really get people going? Put 6.5 creedmore up against 270 win.
only 3 years ago yet you look so young
Pine boards for rifles, 1,000 yd? Maybe a bb gun vs. Balsa wood. Concrete or steel would be better at distance.
Maybe one have to recount – the 308 passed through 12 boards almost 13 – look carefully at the count of 338 Lapua – it past only 14 – not 15 boards. – it did not touch 15. That give a board and a quarter difference. That is bad for the Lapua especially when you compare the ammo size. Furthermore – the test should have used the same ammo to compare it. The projectiles of these ammo is not the same. Calibre wise it seems the 308 came out the best of them.
Scott changed very much
Another old video, you sound so different and young.
No 30.06?! Ah man
Im from the future and you will go far and oh btw " just put a thumb in it "
I have a savage 111 long range hunter in 300 win mag and I absolutely love that gun I would love to see 300 win mag in that mix
Links or price list?
That is a neat and smart way to catch bullets, the soft wood stops the rounds pretty well.
Beautiful 308
Love to see this with AR10's and same length barrels
Dang you looked so young back then
MANN! Tho see your old vid. and compairing them to the newer vids. is really interesting
What a baby! Love watching the older ones
Hi. Very funny to see you on your holdier videos and see how much you grew up and takes confidence. Put a rhumb up 👍 ( or in)
Super crazy to see this video 3 years later without all of Scott’s enthusiasm we love
👍👍👍
This gave me old video vibes, looking like you’re losing weight.
