New World Record Rifle
Even with use of custom mount or Tarac periscope , you only solved the easy part of actualy being able to dial out and being able to aim at the target in sight at all , Variables and garbage in garbage out still remain. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LTyXrdTdxkU- Mr.Tacticool

Revolutionary Products as Opposed to Evolutionary

Revolutionary Products as Opposed to Evolutionary
RPR most likely took much more inspiration from AR15 than the T2K like bolt guns ,AR 10/15 'furniture' continues to take ground in boltguns.,barrel nuts and changable boltheads are great from production stand point but in itself provide no gain in accuracy.- Mr.Tacticool
