[QUOTE="Wachsmann, post: 808594, member: 10429"] hound _hunter the long range rifles by GunWerks are very nice rigs and in my mind should last someone a life time. To get a factory rifle to do what there does it takes a lot and it probably will not still do it unless you get a custom barrel, but then the rifle is not factory anymore. like someone posted earlier you are paying for a precision instrument and then you are paying for a great bit of knowledge that is backed behind the product that is produced. It does take a lot of shooting and knowledge to just getting the basic down for LRS. The GW rifles are expensive rifles hands down but when looking at what you are getting it can be worth it.
