Yeah that's a no from me dawg

Not getting a Christensen arms

Just gonna go with a magpul 700. Maybe some day when I'm good enough with it to warrant it, I'll have a fancy barrel put in like a krieger or something

So, SHTF, what to do with guns i can't carry?
I dont wanna leave them puppies, but realistically I could carry a rifle and pistol on me with a backpack on

If you have close friends and family who you don't want dying, you could lend them

I mean, cache them somewhere real good? Bury them or something?

Doing some reading about tikka and it kinda seems you get more for your money than the remington 700 with a decent aftermarket too

Tikkas are great rifles from everything I've heard.

this has me convinced

Remington 700s are overhyped. Everyone wants them because it's what the military adopted, and then their prices raised. Good rifles, but overhyped.

If you have the money, Tikka is a good choice.

I went with the Mossberg MVP Precision, because it's still sub-MOA and I liked the furniture and stock better than the Ruger Precision.

It looks like the tikka t3x is about the same price, sometimes cheaper, but shoots .25-.5 moa

with what people seem to say is a better action

I may replace the stock later so it's no big deal to me

Wait, how much are Tikkas these days?

I was used to seeing them for around 2k

they have models that are 2k with fancy stocks but the one that the picture above is from costs right at about 1k

Oh nice. Yeah, that's a good price.

For that kind of MOA that is, haha.

but even that is with an upgraded stock. Their cheapest non-lightweight variants run about 800

Not bad. Yeah, the MVP Precision is also a .5 MOA gun, but MSRPs around 1400. But you can grab them for around 1Kish.

Closer to 1200, but still.

mostly factory, minus the rail, scope, and I'm assuming muzzle device

Seems like a good deal man.

where’s my SOTAR boy

Well the Remington 700 is more than that at this point. 80% of precision rifle manufacturers use a modified r700 receiver

Das me @[LA] Zoomer Medi/k/

I’m gonna talk to some friends of Chad’s and I’m going to demand he bring me on a date

He can gauge my holes

😳

Dafuq did I just read.

And yeah, that's because Remington took their bolt design from the German Mausers

thinking about the tikka tx3 ctr. They basically threaded the varmint barrel and called it tactical. Then maybe later on the mdt lss gen two stock looks promising. Under 2 pounds, solid aluminum, and people seem to say good things about it.

Ah I mean good companies make it controlled feed and use dual M16 extractors

I had an MDT once

good or bad?

I had the earlier gen with a rather short forearm, I was very impressed with the build quality, I was underwhelmed by the ergonomics. But that was years ago and it appears their stuff is more thought out now, I would get one again.
