    Serious bipods - Harris, Atlas, or...????

    I just want to point out that the OP wanted something less expensive than an atlas and most of you are recommending things much more expensive.

    Looking for that right bullet

    I got an 18.5" .308 in the works and haven't decided on a bullet. I'm thinking either 155 scenars or 168 berger hybrids. not sure. Goal is to stay supersonic as long as possible. However, from time to time i might use heavy bullets to try some subsonic stuff.

    Although i appreciate the specifics for builders, the part about "lowest cost and good rifle don't belong together" is absolutely ridiculous. You're telling me that in order to have a good rifle, i need to find the MOST expensive builder.. no. not true. i've seen factory guns shoot <.25 moa...

    Need to taste the kool-aid. Question about 6.5 SAUM

    I'm not upset, buddy. All i did was reply to you calling me "schizo" and saying i'm an idiot for thinking i can shoot far without tons of money. If you feel the need to spend over $6k to get to 1290 yards, then good for you. put that money in the economy. but it's not necessary.
