    Sig 516 vs. Barrett REC7

    Hi, the choice of AR-15 clones in the EU is not as wide as in the US therefore I would like to ask the guys familiar with those two rifles: is Barrett so vastly superior to Sig that it is worth the extra money?

    Chris Kyle's system

    Just wondering. What was he using back there in Iraq? I only read the rifle was chambered in 338 LM. Scope? Reticle? ballistic software?

    Haenel RS 8

    I happened to handle today the new Haenel RS 8 . The finish and overall quality is impressive. It reminds me of Blaser lrs 2. However I did not have a chance to shoot it. What strikes me is the price- it is priced at the very same level as AI AE.

    223 at 300yrds- ammo.

    I know it sounds ridiculous but I will give myself a try to compete at 300yrds distance using a rig in 223. Just to push the caliber to its limits. It won't be easy to compete with 260rem or 6.5creedmor but why not give it a try. Bearing this in mind and having a 1/9 twist, 20" barrel I am...

    Movie Theater Magpul videos and ITAR restrictions

    Hi, I intended to purchase a Magpul video, but it turned out none of dealers ships overseas. Funny thing, had no clue that such videos fall under the scope of ITAR. Do you think that might be the case?

    Savage 10BA- what kind of accuracy

    I can expect from this rib? I came across this rifle at my local gun shop. this piece comes from from an old delivery, bought when $$ exchange rate was friendlier. So, the rifle is priced now at the same level as Sako 85 varmint. I habe been thinking 308, so the heavier the better. With 6 kilos...

    I am currently preparing a paper on 260 rem and thus I started doing some research. I would be extremely grateful also for any useful information on 260's history, development and stuff.

    Best precision rifle under 100$

    Yo Fellas, I've just saved my pocket money and was wondering about buying/building a real tacticool sniper rifle. I don't care that much about the caliber (however my pals from the school told me that I should go with 338LM). Do you think I can get a reasonable target rifle (preferably shooting...

    Schultz&Larsen rifles

    Hi, I am looking foward to hear Scandinavian or British colleagues' views on these legendary rifles. S&L's website sucks, so I assume they produce superb stuff and don't need any advertising. Therefore, I would be eager to learn your opinion on their quality, accuracy and pricing.

    Bipod for Howa Varmint

    Hi, I decided to purchase a bipod for my howa an thus wondering if you could toss some ideas around as to what features are critical in this regard. A swivel should be considered as necessary? Moreover, is there a reasonable alternative to Harris? If not, which of the Harris' models would you...

    Cheap is good, good is cheap.

    Is this why 99% of all custom build rifles posted on the Hide are based on Remington 700 action?

    Savage 10 PC v. Howa 1500 Varminter

    Savage 10 Precision Carbine or Howa 1500 Varmint in 223? Savage is lighter, has a detachable mag, accustock+acutrigger, 1:9 twist, so one can use heavier bullets. Howa is heavier (which I personally like) and a little cheaper . Which one of those 2 should be more accurate?

    Mauser M03 match- good idea?

    My next purchase- what do you think? I love the action, safety switch, handling- it's just perfect. In terms of accuracy it should do just fine. I intent do purchase one in 6,5x55 with synthetic stock. What do you think?

    Savage- why always 26''?

    I used to lean towards savage fcv but 26" barrel scared me. IMHO it's way too long. First of all, I will not shoot at more than 300yds (there are not so many such ranges in Europe). Secondly, as proven by the case of Steyr Scout, you can have pretty good accuracy at 300yds with 48cm barrel. So...
