    Vintage Sniper Rifle Picture Thread

    The Tikka M55 sporter in 22-250 was also used by the Norwegian special forces. I used one with a "M40" type stock and a Kongsberg/GFM hammerforged barrel as a sniperrifle in the 80'ies and 90'ies. I had two scopes zeroed in Tikka DeLuxe QD mounts and the rifle/barrel/scopes were set up to...

    What would be a good modern functional scope for a m1903a3

    Weaver mounts are sort of "QD", so a modern 30mm scope don't look completely out of place in the woods or on the range. I would not mind do some hunting with one of these scopes and have the K3 as a display scope.

    Hunting for a repo M40 walnut stock (my Beaver156 repo stock got slightly damaged)

    Beautiful rifle! When I see these type of sniper-huntingrifles I always think of the shots in anger, that can be taken with these rifles, that are difficult/impossible with the modern heavy "all steel" chassis sniper rifles and by the autos due to their long locktime. There is a gap in the...

    EU allies

    It's all the Romans fault. They didn't manage the immigration properly so they ended up as Italians. In addition they didn't exterminate chistianity when they had the chance. If the Romans had done that islam would have been crushed in its infancy as well. :cool:

    The only European country that has ICBMs with nuclear warheads targeting US cities is Russia.

    Ross Mk3 1910 action build- Who wants to help me spend some money!

    Necro thread but: There is a Ross mk3 in 303 British cheap for sale in my area, where they are rare. The rifle has been bubbad so; What do you think of converting it to 6.5PRC? Is the action strong enough? If I survive, literally, a visit to the hospital in April, this could be a fun project.

    Prefit match barrels with test target?

    @lash I'm not trying to convince anyone. From the start I just wanted to know if I could buy an action, just let's say Defiance, and then buy 3 barrels from Brownells, put things together myself in 15 minutes and go shooting. And then maybe prioritize the barrels for competition and practice due...

    Prefit match barrels with test target?

    The Blaser matchbarrels is monstly untouched by human hands in the production process. Producing barrels like this keeps the price down for a top quality product. I don't see a problem with that. Here is a video from GFM that shows the principle of hammering a barrel with chamber. Just think of...

    Prefit match barrels with test target?

    Schultz & Larsen are cutting the chambers and milling the lockinglugs on their own cut rifled blanks in Denmark. Våpensmia, in Norway, cut chambers and mill lockinglugs on blanks from Schultz & Larsen, Heym and Lothar Walther. Blaser hammerforges rifling and chamber in one go and then mill...

    Prefit match barrels with test target?

    @Rob01 Schultz & Larsen in Denmark and Våpensmia in Norway. These barrels are not threaded. They have the "action lockinglugs" milled in the barrel extention behind the chamber and have regular cut chambers. Same goes for Lothar Walther barrels. These barrels are also made for prefit/dropin...

    Prefit match barrels with test target?

    @Rob01 Hammer forged barrels are not a rage. Schultz & Larsen cut rifled barrels have probably 40% of the market for the STR/SSG3000 rifles and they are in the same price range as the above mentioned barrels. The transition from old std bolt action target rifles (assorted Mausers, Krags, etc.)...

    Prefit match barrels with test target?

    If you have to do that kind of work the barrel is not a prefit, is it?

    Prefit match barrels with test target?

    You add for production time and ammo, but you eliminate the cost and wait time for a gunsmith. Why use a gunsmith when the parts fit together in such a way that the shooter can do it by himself?

    Prefit match barrels with test target?

    Well, as this test target shows; the Sierra 144gr, or similar, is a great staring point for reloads instead of staring from scratch.
