furrybean Posted September 26, 2016 Report Share Posted September 26, 2016 Just thinking while getting on with some work... What, in practical or usability terms, is the difference between these two actions for a .308 build? I know the Rimrock is built to finer tolerances but is it worth the extra £££ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baldie Posted September 26, 2016 Report Share Posted September 26, 2016 The Rimrock is externally ground to be parallel with the bore. The alpine is turned. In shooting terms ....sod all. They will both shoot the same. £200 price difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronin Posted September 26, 2016 Report Share Posted September 26, 2016 If youre building a single shot target (F Class, Benchrest, Palma rifle) then id choose the Rimrock. If youre looking for multi shot capabaility then an Alpine or Timberline. I really like the Bordens in any guise Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
furrybean Posted September 26, 2016 Author Report Share Posted September 26, 2016 Cheers guys. I'm really comparing the single shot in both for .308. What is the difference between the two ground and turned, is it cosmetic, ergonomic, better functionality or pedantry? Lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baldie Posted September 27, 2016 Report Share Posted September 27, 2016 Pedantry. I,m pretty certain I have a .308BF single shot alpine in stock, if you want a look at one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
