I am wanting to put together my first dedicated long range rig -- I am thinking something in 6.5 Creedmoor. My original plan was to build both a bolt and a semi in that caliber, but lately I have been giving some thought to skipping the bolt altogether and just putting together a semi. I...

I have started a sniper rifle build on the basis of a Savage 11, and it is time to pick a barrel and caliber. The original plan was to build it in .260 Rem... I love the ballistics on that cartridge... but lately I have been tossing around the idea of doing it in 7mm-08 instead. Still a nice...

Due to the sale of another rifle, I have freed up the funds to put together the long range precision build I have been planning for a while. I have a Savage 111 in .308 on which I am going to be replacing everything but the receiver and bolt. I am wanting to re-barrel to .260 Rem. I would...

I am wanting to get into long range precision shooting, and am looking at attending a sniper class at Badlands Tactical. I have a Savage 11 that I am planning on re-barreling to .260 Rem and turning into my sniper rig, with a McRee chassis. Anyway, I am having a bit of trouble making up my...

Howdy. I'm looking for a good battle rifle optic for a 7.62x51. I currently have a TA-55A ACOG (the 5.5x one) and love it, but don't love how high it sits on my M1A. The main thing I like about the ACOG is the ranging/BDC reticle that simultaneously ranges a man-sized target, and gives you an...

Howdy! I am considering getting a Leatherwood Camputer M-1000 2.5-10x44 for a Savage 111 .300 Win Mag, and I thought I would check and see if any of yall have any experience with this scope. I would like to use it for a sniper role. I would like an optic that allows for very quick ranging and...

I am on an ongoing quest to own the most capable battle rifle available. I am willing to spend the necessary dough to get what I want, within reasonable limits. I have some requirements that I'd like to see in a battle rifle, and I was wanting your input on what the most feasable way to put...
