Long Range Shooting

Tracking point was back with a vengeance this year.

New for 2017 is Kimber’s Subalpine Mountain Rifle, available with a Gore Optifade camo finish. Kimber also teamed up with Leupold to make matching scopes.

The Bullseye AmmoCam camera is a easy and fun way to see your target without having to walk downrange. It transmits video of the target up to 1 mile away.

Based on their advanced T3x action the TAC A1 model is a fully adjustable, modular bolt-action rifle with a sleek rail system, new for 2017.

When it comes to testing the accuracy of your rifle, what exactly (what features and accessories) do you need to get the job done?

I cut my teeth on Remington rifles and have owned my fair share of custom and factory offerings but I kept hearing how superior the Tikka rifles were. There was a time when I just considered that big talk and now that I’ve had a Tikka T3X Compact Tactical in my hands, I don’t think it’s all talk.

I’ll share my Christmas list with you, just for fun – or in case you’re looking for ideas of your own to begin hinting at – or maybe because there is an enthusiast on your list and you need ideas. Whatever the interest, here are the top five that come to mind for me this season.

Savage is well-known for producing rifles that outperform their price points. In fact, they often can outshoot rifles that cost twice as much or more. I recently had a chance to try out the 10 BA Stealth, which is designed to be lightweight, simple, and above all accurate.

This project took awhile to put together, but it was worth it. Overall weight is minimal; almost light for a precision rifle. If you are looking for a truly precision rifle, then give the Surgeon Scalpel a solid look. If you want to lighten it up, then a Proof Research barrel should be your first upgrade.
