  2. Hey guys, I have a us optics b17 (https://www.usoptics.com/product/b-17/) it's in mint condition been mounted on my tikka 223. I like trying out different optics and have tried most of them. Does anyone fancy a trade for a optic of similar value who fancy trying something different? This one is a Mil ret. I also have a schmidt-bender pmii 5x25 which I may also consider trading for something also in mint condition (it's the newer model with the white markings on the elevation caps instead off the yellow) Just asking to see if anyone fancies a swap to try out something different. I'll consider most optics 🙂
  3. Thanks for all your help guys! Been a absolute wealth off knowledge and I can't thank you enough
  4. Wow there is a lot of awesome information there! Sorry to sound new. (Which I am lol) but I didn't even know there was different styles off competitions. From a quick search it would seem that f class is prone shooting at variable distances? And prl involves shooting while prone/kneeling and resting on obstacles? I can't really find much information on mc queens could you enlighten me? Reguarding distances I will shortly be shooting at a range which is 700meters on a weekly basis with trips to Sennybridge likely once a month. So I think a 6.5 creedmoor is the way to go for me. ( I do also want a cheytac for extreme long range but one step at a time lol) I currently have a tikka t3x tactical in 223 with 24" barrel with a schmidt-bender pmii 5x25 on top so I definitely agree with the optics being just as important (if not more important) I will be purchasing a nightforce A.T.A.C.R 7-35x56 for the new rifle I had one before and loved it and regretted it's sale ever since. I'm not taking anything you've said negative at all mate its information like this I need to learn to go forward so thanks for taking the time. I've been shooting air rifles for 10 years but fullbore is relatively new to me. The type of competitions that appeal to me would be prone/bench shooting at variable distances going as far as the creedmoor will allow. I just want something that will shoot amazingly. I really do like that ai ax chassis so that's a must (I do also like the sako m10) and it would seem the best calibre to look for at the moment is that 6.5 creedmoor. But as far as the barrel/action and everything else is what I'm looking for advise on what would be best for the type off shooting I would like to do. Again thanks for that reply mate much appreciated Chris
  5. I had a message from ai saying they don't supply 6.5 barrels. So I'd have to contact sassen direct? Would they be as good as a bartlein/proof/krieger etc?
  6. Very true it's just I like the idea off having it all new that's all. And the ax stock is a must for me. I may be tempted with a second hand ax but I definitely want that ax stock to get used to rather than the at
  7. Hi guys. I'm relatively new to shooting so sorry if any of this is common knowledge or sounds silly. But the best way to learn is to ask. I want to get into competition shooting. Now I know the best way is to pick your rifle and shoot it for years and learn everything about it. So I'm looking to get the best platform to get me started. I'm looking to buy a accuracy international ax308 very shortly. And will want to get a 6.5 creedmoor barrel for it. How would I go around getting a bartlein or proof barrel for it in 6.5 creedmoor? Obviously on the proof website the cost of the carbon fibre barrel is $1100 but after shipping costs etc it would be considerably more. I'm happy to pay costs as like I said I want the best available platform to start with. Would this be a good way to get into long range target shooting? I.e a accuracy international set up with a bartlein/proof barrel in 6.5 creedmoor? Or is there something else I should be looking at which would out shoot this easily? I got alot more questions but I think the answers I get from this will help me massively to what I need to purchase. Thanks Chris
