Barrett MRAD- 338 Lapua- An ELR Monster!

[@TheHateHarbinger]

The only one doing an MRAD accuracy at 100 yards. Thank you!

[@chrishoesel]

I love mine. Best rifle I own, also the most precise. Mine is a Gen 1 with over 3500 rds through it, still prints 1/4" groups at 100. Thanks for posting.

[@bonsaiforu]

3500 rounds through a 338LM barrel? Or is it a different caliber?

[@RevolverOcelot79]

@@bonsaiforu Yeah highly unlikely its a .338 Lapua as barrels simply don't last that long for that caliber.

[@peterdevries3602]

Picking up my MRAD this weekend, looking forward to more videos!

[@westtexas3041]

Great shooting and great camera angles. Thank you for the excellent video.

[@johnnysapper]

Just seeing this and I’m so glad I found it. Thinking of getting this and what a beast!

[@MountainsMulletsMerica]

Oh man, 100% would recommend getting an mrad. I’ve owned mine a little over a year now and I’ve got 4 barrels for it. Great rifle, if you’re into long range precision shooting. Thanks for watching!

[@KT-GoNavy]

Man, I’m so envious of how much free range you have to stretch the beautiful MRAD legs. I have the exact same setup as your Lapua and agree with the AccuTac bipod. I love the 4016 cantilever Spurh mounts too. My ATACR does not have the Christmas tree but still happy with the NF scope. I plan to go to TX in May to shoot 1 mile. Keep up the good vids.

[@MountainsMulletsMerica]

Man I moved out to this area 4 years ago from Georgia, the long range shooting here is unreal compared to back east. Appreciate you watching, I've got lots of cool stuff planned if I can find the time to get it done.

[@KT-GoNavy]

@@MountainsMulletsMerica that's where I am living now, just no room to stretch the legs in GA. Had to go to Dead Zero in TN for a 1000 yds, conquered that no problem. I will follow your path a get a 300 PRC barrel too. Was thinking of a silencer for the MRAD but just love the sound of that rifle too much.

[@stevenr6539]

Good videos. Keep up the good work! More people will catch these and when they do your channel will balloon up. 👍

[@MountainsMulletsMerica]

Thank you for watching! Stay tuned as I continue to keep pushing out content and making it better each time.

[@StuPierce77]

Great video. Looking forward to more MRAD videos.

[@Milspecpoptart]

Just decided to give 338 lapua a shot. Just waiting on the rifle to show up.

[@fordvg]

Great video and I love the Barrett factory trigger on my MRAD338LM I would like to get the Proof Research barrel in 26” inches in 338 Lapua Magnum

[@MountainsMulletsMerica]

Agreed, I’m very impressed with the factory trigger on my rifle. I had though about swapping it out to the flat style trigger but the curved version I’ve got works so well I don’t want to change it haha

[@davedudley196]

very cool... well done first time watching......and im all ears

[@arytonmaurirere7651]

Hell yeah brother, from Aotearoa (new zealand)

[@jthewino1]

Badass rifle, great shooting

[@returnofbillyjack]

I have the drd tactical 338 Lapua mag Ruger 338 and Nemo arms recon 300 win mag love all three

[@trumanhw]

I'm sure trying to provide us visuals was not only challenging but costly. Hopefully someone gives you a few tips to help with some of these challenges as you're obviously very talented. And obviously that MRAD + Scope combo was quite the investment. Keep up the great work. If it's not too arrogant of me to suggest ... perhaps consider consolidating the explanations over portions in which you're shooting. And after watching and seeing you reach the limits of the 338 and based on the name of weapon, hopefully it's not too expensive to throw a BMG barrel in it to test it's comparative performance.

[@reconhippy8352]

Just the vid I was looking for

[@MountainsMulletsMerica]

Awesome, thank you for taking the time to watch! Let me know if you’re looking for something else, I can try to put a video together!

[@MountainsMulletsMerica]

@@reconhippy8352 for sure plan on continuing to make more! Got a 338LM vs 300PRC video I’m finishing up now. Found the rifle on gun broker last fall and I’ve bought barrels in different calibers on various online shooting forums.

What state is that? I’m in Newfoundland Canada Do you hunt at those ranges?

[@MountainsMulletsMerica]

This is in eastern Washington state. Beautiful area. I actually don’t hunt, only into target shooting. Thanks for watching!

[@miketysoneatswaffles3996]

Yo just curious where did u record this video? The scenery is beautiful

[@MountainsMulletsMerica]

Located in eastern Washington state. These rolling fields are a long range shooting paradise!

[@lesgarten]

What normally grows on those fields?

[@MountainsMulletsMerica]

Wheat but in this part of the country they only plant a crop every 2 years. They don’t have enough moisture to grow something every year

[@lesgarten]

@@MountainsMulletsMerica Kansas? I noticed it looked "mowed" and it looked like a great place to shoot. Good practical shooting long distance. Lucky you!

[@jasonhinds463]

What do think is a better choice for ELR shooting? The 338 or 300 prc? I’m just getting into it. Looking to buy a Ruger precision rifle. I love the show!!

[@MountainsMulletsMerica]

Hands down 300PRC or really any of the big 300 magnums. I actually have a video comparing 338LM and 300PRC out to a mile. 300PRC is flatter shooting, lower recoiling, and lower cost than 338LM.

[@Grim_Falcon]

@@MountainsMulletsMerica So why then have a 338LM at all ?

[@ludogg1968]

@@Grim_Falcon I'm hearing more energy on impact downrange

[@joellowery]

DAMN... I'm jealous - both the riffle and your skills!..... well, and I guess add that range to the list... ;)

[@cleaner6666]

More precisely i meant, what change of impact do you have with the same barrel. For example you put the barrel out and in. Do you have a noticeable change of impact?

[@MountainsMulletsMerica]

Apologize for my delayed response, I wanted to get more experience with barrel swaps before getting you an answer. I actually plan to make a video around this. What I’m finding is when I pull a barrel and reinstall the same barrel, POI is extremely close/ if not the same. At most I’ve seen a .3 mil shift vertically with my 300prc barrel. That said each barrel has its own POI however but from what I’m seeing that POI is consistent and repeatable.

[@cleaner6666]

@@MountainsMulletsMerica Thank you. That confirms with my experience. I found that during installation the same barrel again i try to put it in in the same way and maintain the torque of the screws. If the barrel has an impact shift to another barrel, thats ok and not that important because i can note and align it with the scope and set the settings

[@MountainsMulletsMerica]

@@cleaner6666 Agreed, small POI shift when swapping from one barrel to another is fine with me but so far I'm really impressed how repeatable the POI is for each individual barrel.

[@MountainsMulletsMerica]

Really appreciate you taking the time to watch!

[@TomColontonio]

Why do you have mlok and other videos do not have it? Just curious

[@MountainsMulletsMerica]

Depends on the age of the mrad…. The newest version includes mlok. I believe the timeframe on the release of these coincides with the mk22 contract.

[@TomColontonio]

@@MountainsMulletsMerica thanks and your channel rocks!

[@stevebarron2778]

How much is that total setup ?

[@ericb.4358]

Excellent rifle topped by and excellent scope. Congrats! Surprised the SIG rangefinder went tits up. I use Bushnell ARC 1 Mile LRF binoculars that ranges barely to 2000 meters. I'm sure your RPR is like mine and does NOT nave and internal but lock. That is the same as all RUGER American rifles as well. What a cheapo design that hurts and otherwise great action.

[@bosshog340]

Are you using ADG Brass in that 338 Lapua?

[@MountainsMulletsMerica]

No, running lapua brass in the 338LM. I am running ADG in the 300PRC barrel however.

[@bosshog340]

@@MountainsMulletsMerica Haha. Ok. I saw the ADG box and wondered. I do use ADG and Bertram brass in a 338 Edge. I joke that the Edge is like a Lapua, but for men. As far as I know ADG and Bertram are the only Edge head stamped brass makers out there. I've been happy, and have had good luck with both.

[@MountainsMulletsMerica]

@@bosshog340 you know one of these days I'd love to try a big boy 338..... 338LM really doesn't perform as well as the hype made me think. I much prefer a 30cal mag but one of the big 338s like 338 edge might make me more of a fan of the 338 bullet than I currently am haha

[@bosshog340]

@@MountainsMulletsMerica The Edge has a bit more case capacity but it really isn't leaps and bounds over the Lapua. It is very accurate though. Plus flinging a 300gr Berger at 2900 ft/s is pretty awesome. Mine was built by the creator of the cartridge at Defensive Edge. He now has the 338 Terminator you might look at.

[@ericlange2602]

Is your mount on that the SP-4006? Great content!

@@MountainsMulletsMerica One more question. Which pistol grip is that?

@@ericlange2602 it’s the ergo TDX 0 angle grip. So far I’m a fan

[@MountainsMulletsMerica]

@@chanceweston I've never seen a need for a mount with cant built in.... the top rail on the MRAD has something like 10 mils built in and the NF scope has a ton of internal elevation. I've yet to get to a distance I couldn't dial too, furthest I've shot is 2050yds with my 300PRC.

[@Beltfedshooters]

Barrett just came out with an MRAD in .416.

[@MountainsMulletsMerica]

Yeah man and I want one! Guess we’ll see how feasible it is when they release pricing.

[@XStance7]

Is it Mrad or Mrad Mk22?

[@MountainsMulletsMerica]

My rifle specifically is the MRAD. My understanding is the same base rifle but the MK22 runs 300NM, 338NM and 308 for calibers, has a slightly different color and includes additional accessories that I don't have. My opinion however is the performance that I see out of my rifle is inline with the MK22.

[@weijianchen8816]

dd detla 5 pro is half moa gun under 3k

[@MountainsMulletsMerica]

I don’t think they offer the delta 5 pro in any Magnum caliber. Great rifle for sure but doesn’t have the reach of the Magnum calibers out of the mrad.

[@cleaner6666]

Whats your point of impact shift after rechanging barrel?

[@MountainsMulletsMerica]

I'm actually in the middle of confirming this right now. I've got to get my 300 PRC load dialed in and then I can give you a confidence answer. What I'm seeing initially is the 300PRC barrel with 230 atips is hitting about .3 mils lower than the 338 with the 285s at 100 yds. I hope to get a video put together when I get things locked down.
