I see the sniper rifles today and most...

    Scope mount selection

    While I can't rule out what you offered and wish it was the situation since it's the cheapest solution in that same range session I used 3 different setups without any problem and with good results. I have been shooting for 30 years now and ranked very high in matches here. That's the only rifle...

    IDF Mauser M-66 SP

    Don't forget that if it was in service in the IDF it was probably very poorly maintained and shot over 20 times of it's barrel life expectancy. But It's a beautiful piece of history and a really nice and unique rifle. Enjoy it

    SAKO TRG-22

    I have a TRG-42 in 338 since 2008, it's a great accurate rifle, you can see that there was a lot of experience and thought put into the rifle in order to make it a true old fashion infantry sniper rifle it's light so you can carry it for very long periods and very robust. The only problem I had...

    Cadex Dual Strike Chassis for Sako TRG22?

    I would leave it, unless u want to install clip on devices or need the folding stock for any reason you really don't need it, in my opinion after doing that it changes all the design approach of the rifle and not really necessary, but it's your rifle and your money Enjoy what ever you do
