The Best Long Range Rifles Just Got Better - Masterpiece Arms All New And Improved Rifles and Action

[@DanielReyes-hz1qk]

Moving from factory rifles to custom was one of the best decisions I've ever made. And the price point of those MPA rifles is awesome! Would highly recommend to anyone who's serious or getting serious about long range shooting or rifles in general to just go ahead and pick up something nice. Some of those rifles are the same price as Tikka T3X TAC-A1s! That's crazy!

[@DanielReyes-hz1qk]

@@Paintballguru92 My full custom was WAY more than an MPA, lol. A grand for my Bartlein barrel two grand for Defiance action at least a grand for my XLR chassis, and there was still the trigger (Bix'N Andy), muzzle brake (Ultradyne), rings scope and bi-pod

[@DanielReyes-hz1qk]

@@Paintballguru92 410 is for a barrel blank, not a finished barrel, my Bix'N Andy was 350, my Defiance with 2 bolts was 1500, the chassis with options was over 1k. I don't know where you're getting your prices. But regardless I know what I paid for my build and while it's better in my opinion, it also cost more. Compared to buying a Tikka T3X TAC-A1 or something, the MPA is a better value

[@DanielReyes-hz1qk]

@@Paintballguru92 My chassis, action, barrel and trigger were 4500. I didn't miss it, you didn't specify that the gunsmithing was for barrel work Edit: bare in mind I agree with you about going with a custom rifle, so I'm not sure why you're arguing. But not everyone wants to do that, and for those who want to buy a factory rifle these are a good option at a reasonable price

MPA customer service is incredible. I've received a callback from the owner and others within 10 min of contacting them. They believe in customer support! I own 4 of their custom rifles.

[@pigroper5]

Seems like adding a bipod will help move the balance point forward, a little bit anyway. I ordered the pro ii with folding stock exactly purpose of cleaning. I like that a lot. I shoot a savage precision currently, that has an adjustable cheek riser and I have to loosen set screws and lower it every time I clean it. Not hard, except I never have adjusted quite the same.

[@paramounttactical]

A bipod will move the balance point forward dramatically but it doesn’t matter if you’re shooting from the bipod. Where balance point matters is shooting from barricades/positional shooting which is a major portion of PRS. Most people aren’t going to be running a bipod during those events.

[@buckaroobonsi555]

I am not a huge fan of custom actions since I have competed for decades with blueprinted Springfield, Mauser, Winchester, and Savage actions. Buttery Smooth is not something I can measure down range. In this case though at $2600 for a complete rifle I can not think of any reason not to like it. I think $2600 for a rifle ready to mount an optic and go compete with this is very reasonable. Now if we can just get the prices of big name brand optics down not going to hold my breath on that one! If you put an Arken Optic on it you could be all in for $3000. If you go Mark IV or NightForce or March you will be pushing $5600 to $7000 depending on if you buy new or used!

[@timothythompson6549]

I gotta say, camera settings may have been a benefit. That chassis looks amazing in orange. It's my favorite color and in a couple of years I'm looking to get something nice for myself when I hit the big 5-0.

Might pick one up in .375 Cheytac or bigger for those super long range competitions.

[@camonly849]

Just shot a long rang match with my tikka upr. Definitely a great entry level gun. I wanted to be able to use it for competition and hunting. I then got behind my friends weighted competition rifle with an MDT chassis. It was at this moment I 100% understood how important balance and weight are. I was struggling to hold my reticle still at 4-500 yds. I got behind his rifle and It was a chip shot to take a positional shot at 1048yds. Needless to say my competitive side wanted to rear its head and I started to convince myself that I needed this rifle and for good reason 😂. I am considering an MDT chassis with lones peak or impact barreled action. It's a little more pricey. I really do like these full MPA builds. I am definitely considering it. I really like the looks!

[@paramounttactical]

@@camonly849 you’ll do yourself a favor by getting a rifle all built by one company and i guarantee it’ll end up being cheaper.

[@paramounttactical]

For rifles with additional barrels you want to stay in the same action types. 300PRC is a long action and while you can run a short action barrel/cartridge (.308/6.5 creed/PRC) they’re not going to feed properly. You can do .338 Lapua with a 300Prc, 7PRC barrel… etc. Or 6.5 creed with extra .308, 6.5 PRC, any 6mils barrels.

Hello PT, on the MPA Ultralight Hunter, does it come with a Swiss Arca rail, or is there an option to have it built with an ARCA rail? Also, are people seeing better long range consistency with 300 PRC or 7 mm PRC? Many thanks!

[@paramounttactical]

The Ultralight Hunter does come with an integrated arca rail. All MPAs do. Both 300PRC and 7PRC are unbelievably good. 300PRC definitely has more energy and longer legs but it’s very soft shooting but either are excellent choices for hunting or just recreational long range in general. Thanks for watching! -Gary

[@danielmccarthyy]

May I inquire further? When you say the 300 prc us “soft shooting”, is that a joke because it has heavy recoil, or are you serious that an 8 pound rifle plus scope in 300 prc really does not kick that much? Any input is appreciated. I have owned and shot 375 H&H, 458 Lott, 500 NE and 600 NE, but the latter two are only fired offhand.

[@paramounttactical]

@danielmccarthyy take a look for yourself. Here’s my 8 year old shooting it. He ended up shooting the full 20rd box and would have shot more. It’s shockingly light recoiling. When he fires a round in the video, watch how little the rifle moves. The weight of the rifle and the MPA brake contribute to that but all things being equal I didn’t feel a noticeable difference between it and 6.5PRC. kzbin.info/www/bejne/boCxcpiljLZsesksi=0z8JwxWwwuKxxaoH

I wonder how it and the GAP PPR would compare and contrast each other. I know the PPR is more expensive out of the gate

[@paramounttactical]

The PPR has a manners 2TA stock which isn’t a chassis and costs less than a ESR chassis. So you have a manners stock paired with a Curtis action which is what MPA used to use but now uses the better more expensive ARC Coup De Grace action. Given the sum of the parts are significantly cheaper I don’t know how GAP justifies the price of their gun. The Manners stock is over $400 less than the ESR chassis and yet the base price of the rifle is $400 more. Makes no sense to me. With the MPA you’re getting more for the money. You get a built in Arca rail, mlok compatibility, night vision bridge, the option of a folding stock, a rifle that can be used for PRRS, a better action… $3000 for a PPR makes zero sense in comparison.

Less features to save weight; add weights to the front, make space for weights in the back. Give up the micro adjustable cheek, when the forend could have been made longer, since the barrel is always longer than the forend anyway. Doesn't seem like a very well thought out design IMO.

[@paramounttactical]

Well you’re clearly not a PRS shooter and don’t understand the design features. It’s not about HOW MUCH weight it’s about WHERE the weight is for customizing the balance of the rifle. These are design features pro shooters wanted. If the Matrix Pro II doesn’t make sense to you, that’s why they offer the Matrix Pro.

@@paramounttactical I admire and commend the innovation. No, I'm not a PRS shooter, however I'm interested and looking at different chassis. Three changes in 2 years; I applaud MPA for listening.

MPA machines every barrel to match every action so by going with a different barrel you are hundreds of times more likely to cause problems rather than fix them. I don’t know the time frame of the story above but barrels have never been an issue for the 3 years we’ve been selling and personally using MPAs. We have 8 of them we use for student rifles I own 4 others for personal use. Never had an issue.

wow. masterpiece arms now offering an American rifle CDG and TT... That's full blown custom territory right there.

[@williamrodgers6898]

This video gave me a push to look at them just to see they don't offer it in 7 rem mag, lol just my luck... 300 win mag but not 7 rem mag, so I guess I get one in 300 win mag and buy another rifle from another company in 7 rem mag.😂 wife will kill me

[@paramounttactical]

Why not 300PRC or 7PRC? You’ll get significantly better performance out of both.

[@williamrodgers6898]

@paramounttactical I guess I just haven't cross over into the fan club of PRC just yet... not sure if it's availability thing, cost, or just simply a mental hangup... I'm the same way with the creedmoor family too... I would hate to get trapped into a fad ammo and spent a lot of money on a rifle set up for it to not have a proven track record, which is why I can get behind a 300 win mag. It has proven history and ammo availability.

@paramounttactical , also it's good to see guys who cross over Iraq 20 years ago doing well. I take it, you were army, 3rd ID (that's all i remember who crossed with us), I was with the Marines with task force tarawa. Keep rocking these videos, I'm glad I came across them.

[@richiefutrell6247]

William take the leap. We are continually seeing less and less rifles rifles chambered in the classic cartridges and that will only correlate to ammo manufacturing moving forward. It's not a fad, Hornady cartridges expecially in the last decade or two dominate the market.
