    2-stage triggers?

    It has been flogged to death, I know. But what is the hides opinion about this: I was recently reminded on how much I like the Sako TRG triggers, it might acctually be my favourite. But I dont have a TRG myself, I run 2 different customized Remington 700 builds. So the question is, which 700...

    Rifle Scopes Replace a S&B 3-20 US, what to do?

    About a year ago, I convinced a friend of mine to get a Schmidt & Bender PM2 3-20 Ultra Short. Which I feel is one of the best scopes out there. I have been a Schmidt fan for years and while my 5-25x56 is my favourite, I will say that, if the 3-20 US with MSR was available at the time when I got...

    NM Langhold, my story from the hardest competition in Scandinavia

    Background: I have been shooting precision rifles for the last few years, long range shooting has been a motivator all along. But in Sweden in general, there are few chances to go beyond 600 meters, and pretty much every range is limited to 300 meters. The furthest I had ever shot before this...

    190 grain SMK in 300 win mag.

    After a pretty decent search around the web for COL measurements, I came up with not a whole lot more than; "I load them to mag length and just run that!". Well mag length varies, so it really does not say a whole lot. Not to me, anyway! So what is the word on the street on COL for 190 grain SMK...

    Rifle Scopes I messed up today!

    So today I went to the range for the first time during my well deserved vacation. It was very windy and we had great trubble to hit the target at 300 meters. So after a while we gave up and went home. During the obligatory cleaning session afterwards, disaster struck. My Tikka took a plunge...

    Rifle Scopes Considering upgrading from Vortex Viper PST 6-24x50.

    Hi. This will be my second season using my Vortex Viper PST 6-24x50 MRAD scope. This year it sits on top of my Tikka T3 Varmint in .308win. Last year it was mounted to my Remington 700 in 22-250rem. Anyhow. I use my rifle for range practice and competition use, I will probably never shoot...

    Tikka T3 Varmint+KRG build.

    So, I recently sold my Remington 700 Composite to fund a new build. Last week I ordered a Tikka T3 Varmint in .308 Winchester with a 20" barrel and 18x1mm treaded muzzle for a future suppressor keeping it OAF compatible. My Remington 700 rested in an Accuracy International AICS AX chassie which...

    To upgrade or to start fresh?

    So, only yesterday I sold my AIAX chassis. Being firm in the belief that I would get a KRG Whiskey 3 chassis to replace it with. But now I am swaying. The thing is that a WT3 chassis would cost me about 2 000$. And I would still be usting my "old" but very good shooting Remington 700 lock and...

    Gunsmithing Making a pistolgrip in walnut for my AIAX chassie.

    So, last spring I finished my Remington 700 Composite project with a AX chassie from Accuracy International. The rifle shoots really good and I really like everything about the chassis, except the pistolgrip. The pistolgrip is as some of you guys know, very very small. At least for my size 10...
