Thinking about building a .308 sniper rifle advice?

Bought a Rem 700 police in .300 win mag. The gun can shoot sub moa out past 400 yds if i do my part. Have taken 1 bull and 1 buck with out past 400yds and hit exactly where i wanted both times.

For a dedicated long range shooter the Sendero SFII has the same length but fluted barrell. Almost the same HS Precision Stock and is usually cheaper. (MSRP$1360---$1000 retail vs. $1500 plus for the 700P retail)(minus the second sling swivel stud)

The military has already started rechambering all their M24's to 300 Win Mag as well. (if it has not already completed this)

Dont overlook a Savage rifle. Out of the box I have seen quite a few that would run circles around a comparable Remington.
Typically they are a bit cheaper to accurize..

Look at the Savage 12 Palma ($1600-1700) and a Remy from the custom shop has trouble competing. (Have you seen that commercial where they are shooting at 1169 yards??)
You shouldn't need to do anthing other than add optics.http://www.savagearms.com/firearms/model/12%20PALMA

I also agree that in most cases the common Savage will outshoot a common Remy... out of the box.
