I'm just getting started in long distance shooting... I think in inches and yards, but want to use a Mil scope... Your Mil MOA Conversion chart will be very helpful to visualize some of the distances... I have calculated some of the ranges, but your version is more complete and much...

Beautiful rifle... Looks like it's floating in mid air...

Thanks... I am leaning towards a Premier HMR. This is another good reason...

Why not replace the heavy firing pin spring with a lighter spring? Is the firing pin too heavy for a lighter spring?

Where did you all purchase your Bergara rifles? Gun shop... Online gun shop... Gun vendor... I'm thinking about buying a Bergara HMR Pro in 6.5 Creedmoor and wondering where the best place to buy one would be... I've bought pistols online, but never a rifle... Worried about rough handling...

Searched on "TBAC Thread" and there are hundreds of threads on TBAC. Is there a link to this?

Thanks for the good information... I do like building my own rifles... I built an AR-15 about 8 years ago and built two AR-9's to shoot in USPSA's PCC division... I just don't know a lot about bolt action rifles... They are more complicated than I was expecting. I checked on the factory...

So the advantage is that you can adjust the headspace with the lock nut... Instead of needing a lathe?

Nice rifle... What kind of scope rings are those? Like the built-in level... Do you check it during matches?

First I have heard of a Remage style barrel... Did a bit of research and found out they they seem to be a Remington 700 barrel adapted to use a Savage barrel nut... Interesting... Do most high end bolt guns use the Remage style barrels?

All good comments... Thanks for answering... I built my first AR-15 years ago and it shot well, but it took a long time... My plan this time is to buy a complete rifle... Was thinking if I could just drill and tap the scope holes and buy a scope base with holes for 8-40 screws, that I would...

Yes... My bad... Thanks!

Thanks for the well thought out answer... As you can tell, I am very new to bolt action rifles... My plan is to buy one of Remington's 5-R Gen II 6.5 rifles... Planning to use a Seekins scope base because it has the recoil lug you mentioned and they offer models for both the 6-48 and 8-40...

I'm planning to put together a Remington 700 rifle in 6.5 Creedmoor for possible PRS shooting... I'll be using a fairly large scope... Something with a 34mm tube and a 56mm objective lens. Is it necessary to upgrade the scope base mounting screws to 8-40 for a heavy scope like this? I'm...

Thanks for the info @wade2big I was confused because Buds Gun Shop has both the Tan and Green rifles listed as: Remington 700 5-R Gen 2 6.5 CRD 24" 4+1 Synthetic HS Apparently the green Rem 700 rifles are actually Gen 1's, not gen 2's... I'm going to a gun show in a couple of weeks and want...

Planning to buy a Rem 700 5-R Gen 2 rifle... Was curious to find the difference between a Gen 1 and a Gen 2... Looks like it's just threading and fluting the barrel... bolt knob and cerakoting the barrel... So if a 5_R has a threaded/cerakoted barrel it is a Gen 2? Remington makes both a...

So... What you all are calling an "Air Gun Trigger" is actually a microphone?

Thanks... I haven't really heard much about Tikka rifles before now, but will check them out. I agree about your custom rifle comment... Still have a lot to learn before going down that road though.

Hi All... I originally joined Sniper's Hide about 8 years ago when I was building a 5.56 SPR... I took a 7 year hiatus while shooting USPSA and SCSA Steel Challenge... Still shoot both of them, but their recent addition of PCC (Pistol Caliber Carbine) division has brought me back to shooting...
