    New Remington 700 Tactical Chassis Rifle - Big News Exclusively from SHWAT™!

    I understand completely. The rife we got is one of two. Or was a couple of weeks ago when we got it. In theory, it's off the shelf parts. I don't know if there was any extra work that went into making it nice for us. They didn't know we would be taking to class at Tac Pro with Bill Davison...

    New Remington 700 Tactical Chassis Rifle - Big News Exclusively from SHWAT™!

    New Remington 700 Tactical Chassis Rifle - Big News Exclusively from SHWAT™!

    Grandpa's Gun Reborn - Rem 700 build, looking for input

    This rifle now has a big brother to compete with. We now have a .338 LM. Down the road, these two along with me and my brother/business partner will go head to head against each other. What are your favorite suppressor options for the 338 and why? Thanks again!

    I'm not new to hunting or shooting. I am a member of the shooting/hunting industry, with a growing interest in the long range aspect of the sport. I've had the interest for several years, but had limited opportunities to delve into it. That is now changing. 90%+ of my shooting has been at...
