I am looking into building/buying a new rifle.
I have a Remington 700 SPS tac. in a AICS in .308
I also have a Sauer 200 STR target rifle in 6,5x55
I like shooting the Sauer better than the Remington, but that might have to do with me training a lot more with it.
The costs for reloading in 6,5 is about half of the price of .308.
I want to take the next step, building a rifle that will suit me better, building on my small amount of experience.
The options is pretty much these:
AI AE mk III in .260.
This is one of my dream rifles, but is expensive.
Sauer 200 STR with a Spuhr mount and a SSG 3000 stock in 6,5x55
This can use my competition ammunition, is half the price of the rest, is easy to sell later, can use my current mags, I am used to the trigger and so on.
It originally comes with a wood stock.
DTA SRS in .260
Is around the same price as the AE, I have never handled one, and probably never will if I don't buy one.
Sako TRG in .260
I am pretty set on a caliber in 6,5mm.
I know all these rifles are capable of 0.5 moa.
It's pretty hard to get a hold of some of the rifles, i can order the Sauer and have it delivered in a week.
I am unsure if I am even able to get some of the barrels in .260 without ordering from the US.
I plan on putting a Nightforce 5,5-22x50 and a suppressor on it.
