i'm planning to buy a 308 and i'm considering the following.

Remington SPS tactical action
Macmillan A5 stock or B&C A5.

I'd like to know what you think of this build... anyone have one like it?
 
Re: Info on Tactical 308 build?

what you list is not a build......it a pile of fiberglass and metal....or in the case of the B&C a pile of foam to mimmick a canoe oar.....



so what is it perzackly that you wish to accomplish ?

Well.......

In addition to the "Oar", I replaced the trigger with a Rifle Basix, bedded the action (thanks again 7mmRem and Scimitar), put a one piece Pic rail, Burris rings and a Burris tactical 4.5-14 scope on it, blackhawk stock pac, Harris pivoting 6-10 bipod (don't remember the model number), padded loop sling. I think that's it.

I need to go rowing now!

Get a Plaster special, it provides a more "sniperesque," Uber-tacticool, stealthy rowing function... LOL!!! But, the B&C may be used as a flotation device in case of emergency! LOL!!!

well, first of all, i'm looking for something that i can kill deer with, and take to the range with me. Second i NEED a vertical grip on any rifle i own due to a wrist fracture years ago.

from what i hear plaster stocks are crappy, overly heavy, and not comfortable to shoot with

any opinions?

Were you this salty with your students?
 
Re: Info on Tactical 308 build?

In my book, you could have 2 rifles that shoot the same, look the same, have all the same parts...

If one could be used as a precision boat paddle, I'de say thats a plus.
