.338 Lapua Build ---Feedback very welcome---

[ducks-and-bucks]

I'm getting things together to build a .338 Lapua, here's what I am thinking... If anyone has any input or suggestions please give me feedback!!! It will be very much appreciated!!

I want a .338 Lapua that I can take out to 1500 yards. Bench rifle/bipod on the ground. I will be using it for hunting and target, but I do not plan to pack it around hiking. It will be very much a stationary set up.

A defiance machine rebel action, repeater, with a detachable mag, hybrid ejection port, target rear tang, tactical bolt knob, flat bolt nose, 30 MOA canted picatiny rail, benchmark 30 inch heavy bull barrel, muscle break 4 port muzzle break, and the stock I haven't totally decided on... Need opinions for this kinda set up, and need opinions of rifling and twist rate.... I want to shoot a heavy, yet tac driving load that patterns 1500 yards or less like a champ! I know velocity isn't everything, but I'd like to have a max load...

Are you involved with precision shooting at distance in any discipline currently?
Or do you already shoot at distance from field positions or from the bench on paper or steel?

That is good.
You don't need to be involved in competition to have or develop good shooting skills.
My questions is, "How many rounds have you put down range at distances beyond 700 yards on steel or paper?"
Do you reload?

Not assuming or implying anything.
Just asking a question, so I can respond the same way I would to anyone who would ask a question like this.
I will PM you.
