    New shooter, looking for first rifle

    You didnt mention whether you reload or not. If you don't I'd agree with Bear24 - Savage LRP in 6.5 creed with an aftermarket chassis like the XLR element. If you do reload, look at the Tikka T3 Sporter or CTR in .260 Remington. The Sporter stock is excellent, but you can also swap into a...

    Rifle Scopes 2014's Best Scope ShootOut

    Thanks calz - this is definitely one of the most detailed, thorough, and data driven scope comparisons out there. Its persuaded me to go out and test the tracking of my scope, even if it tested perfectly in the comparison. Also, if you ever hear back from March on the calibration error, please...

    Modern Day Swiss Project (lots of pics)

    I have thought that a good straight pull bolt action would make a great competition gun. From all I have heard, the Swiss K31 would make a great platform. If you could make it work with AICS mags, and chamber it in 6.5x55 with a heavy match barrel, it should be awesome. Even nicer if you could...

    Modern Day Swiss Project (lots of pics)

    This is awesome and I have thought of a similar project myself, but nothing as cool as this. Did you think of modifying it to accept AICS mags? With that and a heavier barrel, this should be a decent competition gun. Shamir

    2015 Vegas Precision Rifle Challenge presented by Kelbly's

    Wow - that got filled up quickly. Just heard that I am on the wait-list for this. It will be my first PRS match, so hoping I actually get in.

    Tikka T3 CTR?

    Glad to get that confirmation - my CTR from EO should be coming this week, and I am planning to drop it into my X-ray chassis to test it out. Longer term I may put it into an X-ray or W3.

    Official Accuracy International AT First Look

    Did you weight that yourself? Seems light compared to what the Mile High guys said earlier in this thread, but it may be because of the 20" vs. 24" barrel.

    Switch barrel rifles for precision rifle competitions? DTA vs AI AT vs ?

    I thought I'd need a vise for any sort of barrel swap on a Tikka. Any links to online descruptions/videos on how to do this? I am nervous about playing around with barrels and creating dangerous headspace problems.

    Switch barrel rifles for precision rifle competitions? DTA vs AI AT vs ?

    With a nick like SRSDriver, that's surprising :-). I am going to stick to my Tikka for a while still - I do love the smooth bolt, and in an X-ray chassis I can run AICS mags in it. I really like the spigot mount that I have in my X-ray, and my understanding is that you can't get a spigot mount...

    Washington state monthly matches at Upper Nisqually Sportsman's Club

    Oh yeah I remember that first time up in UNSC :-). I've shot a couple more since then at UNSC, and also the Karstetter match up in Wilbur, WA. Still a long way to go before I become competitive, but its a ton of fun. Here's the link to the match in Bend...

    Accuracy International AT vs. Desert Tactical Arms SRS - Need Help Understanding

    I asked a very similar question in this thread - http://www.snipershide.com/shooting/snipers-hide-bolt-action-rifles/266962-switch-barrel-rifles-precision-rifle-competitions-dta-vs-ai-vs.html before I found this one. Sounds like I need to add the AI AXMC into the mix as well. Which would you...

    Switch barrel rifles for precision rifle competitions? DTA vs AI AT vs ?

    I am not familiar with switch barrel setups on custom actions - whats the process to switch barrels? I dont have the space for a vise, so I am really looking for something where I could spin the barrels on and off with minimal tools, in the field if necessary.

    Switch barrel rifles for precision rifle competitions? DTA vs AI AT vs ?

    What would you guys recommend for a switch barrel rig that would work good for competitions? I'm looking for something that would allow me to switch to a 6mm caliber for competitions, while shooting a 6.5 creedmoor or .308 with cheap off the shelf match ammo in practice or local competitions...
