Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunting Rifles What factory rifle would you buy today?

Hmmmm. What’s the interest rate on a gun loan? Fine rifle for sure.

Did I call it or what?!

I like this outlook for sure

Is that all you know what to speak, swearing & profanity ?

RamKchunt,

Bless your heart for TRYING.

Speaking of words that are too big and too technical to understand? Hmmm...

To quote Big Stick: "reinforcing is not a word"

Well that’s an interesting question that many of us has asked ourselves. I think every reply here is absolutely correct for those who posted it.
For me I would choose a rifle/caliber so far not mentioned. It would be my Remington 25-06 as restocked by Mark Bansner with his Sheep Hunter stock. A Timney trigger with a 6x36 Leupold scope on top make an excellent open country combo.
Jack O’Connor once wrote, “the difference between the 120 grain 25-06 and the 130 grain 270 lies in the realm of the imagination”.
And the 25-05 shoots a little flatter with a little less recoil.
Just my two cents worth.

Id proly get a Steyr CL II SX in midweight
.308win.

A few that have followed me home over the years, all straight factory, wrapped in wood,
any, without question, I would buy again, today!

Again, it is quite clear that Big Stick has shot one rifle more than most of the the total rifle rounds any one of us has fired over a lifetime. He works. He shoots. He shoots some more...and more again. His saying, "The ultimate tutorial is spent primers" is spot on. In a year he shoots more than 95% of us shoot in our lives. That's experience. Experience is when you are tested first them learn the lesson after the test. He cuts his barrels off at the optimum length, in general, long ago arrived at by the Benchrest Shooters Association. Those guys shoot groups routinely in 0.25 MOA and better. The bench rest boys in general shoot barrels 19"~21" in length. I read at one time in Precision Shooting (now discontinued) that 21.5" was the preferred length for the 6PPC. The short answer is he cuts his barrels off because he has shot literally millions of rounds and obviously gets better accuracy across the board with the 19"~21" barrel length. The ultimate tutorial is spent primers.

Dayum, GW! Thems some fine shooting’ sticks right there! Happy Trails

Dood,

the 1,000 yard 10 shot group of 2.6” 100-10x from a match earlier this year was from a 30” Krieger.

To the original question, the Bergara Premier line took the R700 and actually used quality parts that don’t need to be replaced on Day 1. Basically it is the rifle lots of guys put together for a tuned up R700 and what Remington should have done for the last 50 years.

FN seems to be making the best Model 70 ever for those that like that route.

The Mauser 12 is a quality barreled action though the stock has odd ergos.

They also are making the M98 again, which is as good as any ever made in the past and better than most. The pricing is brisk. fwiw - Rigby’s are just rebranded Mausers with different stock dimensions, which also are odd ergos at least to me.

I have many rifles including customs in the safe, but usually take an earlier gen .308 Montana Rifle Company with a Nightforce hunting.

Oh he's so dreamy isn't he? Still have pinups of him on your walls?
