A friend of mine shooting his custom built "Chandler" .308 M40 A6. I was running spotter for him. Will make follow up vids later on, showing the accuracy which is beyond exceptional.
@USSpecOps93 100%. But I had mine chambered for .308, at the ranges that we work at (< 750m) 168gr BTHP .308 is perfect. For longer I'd agree with ya on a .300 win mag. Get a Nightforce scope, the best, but expensive. Col Chandler is a good man and makes a quality product, it won't let you down brother

Its because a standard equipped M40 is a "bull barreled" M700 Just like the one in the video.

Absolutely if the pocket can afford it you won't find a better rifle anywhere else.

i've noticed that very few rifles have as large a barrel profile as the m40.
anyone know why the barrel profile of the m40 is so massive?

I was thinking of ordering the Chandler Custom M40 but with an A5 stock and in either .338 Lapua or .300 winchester. Would you recommend it?

@ktphotog39 Why do you have to do so stupid.
This dude is reliving his childhood dreams and you go spoil it for him.
Just get a job so you can pay one too.

If your one of those politically correct people, I suppose so.
However not that it makes any difference toward your reasoning, IBA professionals are prior Marine gun smiths to my understanding.
I say if they can make a rifle as nice as this one, then they can call it anything they want.
