Advice on my first Custom build

Hi Everyone.

I'm still very green in long range. I've mostly been around standard Rifles, shotguns and Handguns only. I'm always liked bolt action but the timing wa never right to be able to get into it either from where i lived, price or other life priorities.

After my initial researchwhich turned into weeks upon weeks going down a rabbit hole of just biting a bullet to buy once cry once and build a really nice long range bolt action.
I have a range near me which had been growing that has 25 - 500 yards (open to public) and two 1000 yards for qualified members only. Looking to get some feedback or personal opinions about my current planned build, and if anyone would give recommendations, etc.

Action: Lone Peak Arms Fuzion .308; bolt face (this is the only item i have already purchased).

Chassis: Vision Pro
- I'm looking to get the foldable stock adapter hinge. Would this really affect how the rifle may shoot?

Magazines: Leaning towards AW (action and chassis can accept this or AICS). I like the low profile idea and how the magazine of an AW may not hit a bag since the stop is close on this chassis.

Trigger: TT Diamond 2 stage. Flat

Muzzlebreak: Spearhead 5 Port

Scope: either
- Mark 5HD 3.6-18x44 MIL
-LRP S3 425-50
-NF NX8 4-32x50 F1
I like first plane and mil over moa.

Barrel: Proof Barrels prefit in .308. I was originally thinking to do 6.5cm for more range but the barrel life is feel is so short in comparison and the .308 will last a long time and if I hunt would pack a better punch less 600yards from what I gather.

I'm very open to barrels as this has been the most difficult to research for me. It's endless information. Looking to go for a 24" in length but Prefits seem to come 26"? Is it easy to swap a barrel in the garage for a prefit rather than go to a gunsmith? Any advice I'll appreciate.

I should mention I'm not in a rush but If I can get anything sooner than later with holiday special deals I will.

Thank you to all in advance!

Optics WTS/WTT Nightforce 2.5-10X24 MK-12 Clone Optic

Hey boys,

I have a like new Nightforce 2.5-10X24 for sale. This one is from the last 2015 run Nightforce made before discontinuation. I’m the original owner. Bought it from Alex at Euro Optics years ago.
This would make a perfect optic for a MK12 or Recce clone rifle….or any rifle for that matter.
I need 2k plus shipping for the optic with the mount. If you don’t need the mount, take $50 off the price.

Now, for trades; it’s pretty specific.
I’ll trade for a Leupold Mk4 LR/T 3.5-10X40 FDE, or a S&B 3-12X50 with MTC turrets. I can add cash for the S&B.

Thanks!!

-Phil

SOLD Vudoo V22S Single Shot Benchrest - Left Bolt/Right Port

I’m selling my single shot, left hand/right port, Vudoo V22S (not including scope, ammo, and rest).

Here are the specs:
  • 24” Shilen barrel with a Harrel tuner (barrel was slugged)
  • Bix’n Andy Competition Trigger
  • 20 MOA pic rail installed (including a 0 MOA scale as well)
  • RO-TEX stock bedded by Randy
  • Bolt tool
  • Bore guide
Speedy went thru the ignition/fire control group. It has exactly 1,005 rounds down the barrel. I’ve only shot Lapua Center-X through it.

I’ve won one club match with it. And at my last tournament back in May, I shot a 2225-9X, 2200-12X, and a 2200-11X.

I got it new in the Spring of 2023, and I cut my teeth on bench rest with this rifle (never shot BR before… I still don’t have/use wind flags). I’ve never lot tested ammo thru it so I don’t really know what it is capable of. I just buy Center-X (when I can find it) and shoot it. Also, I have not played with the tuner. I set it according to the “formula” on some forums and left it alone.

I’m getting out of the rimfire bench rest business to concentrate on (and fund) centerfire bench rest. Two bench rest disciplines is just too much for my simple mind.

If the rifle sells, I’ll list for sale my Cliff Arnold Rest and Sightron SV 10-50X60 ED scope/rings as well.

I would prefer to sell it locally… I live between San Antonio and Austin. If the buyer is local, I do have 572 rounds of Lapua Center-X available to negotiate as well. However, I will ship/insure the rifle to an FFL at the buyers expense.

Asking $xxx. No trades.

If you have any questions or want to see more pics, just let me know.

Thanks for looking, Matt

First “I’ll take it” in the comments trumps pending offers via PM.

Price is SHIPPED CONUS. Insurance over $100 is on you, in the unlikely event that you want it. Otherwise, bipod is yours once it is scanned at the carrier.
