[QUOTE="milanuk, post: 1384138, member: 376"] Yeah, I'd have to call BS on that one too. At many of the F-class matches I go to (and I get around more than most) there are either rifles built off of custom actions i.e. Borden, BAT, Kelbly, Defiance, Barnard, etc. or rifles built using Savage actions, whether out of the box, modified or complete builds like the picture I posted earlier. A few Remingtons, usually reworked to some degree. Almost no Browning, CZ, Howa, Winchester, etc. Occasionally you might see a Ruger RPR... usually not more than once, as the gun just isn't set up for F-class. If you change the venue to PRS, you see a lot more variety... particularly more RPR, more Tikka, and more re-worked Rem 700s (apparently nobody likes those things in stock form - just kidding ;) ) But yeah, that kind of statement from a publisher makes me wonder how much he actually gets around to matches.
