The DPMS LR-308 is not a new rifle by any means. In 2005 the original LR-308 was named “Gun of the Year” by the NRA publication, American Rifleman. Since 2005 DPMS has released 8 different rifles built on the same receiver in various in different configurations. The rifle I am working with is from my personal collection, and is for competition shooting in practical and precision rifle matches. This is was the first time I was able to shoot this rifle since receiving it back from my gunsmith. The rifle for review is a custom built original, slick-sided LR-308 built for long range precision. It was built from a stock LR-308 that had a 24” stainless steel bull barrel and A2 stock out of the box.
