Re: building a sniper rifle
<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: aatactical</div><div class="ubbcode-body">Well good question, I can only see out of the center of my right eye all my vision is gone in my left eye and the perifial vision in my right eye is gone as well. I have basically tunnel vision. I dont need a rifle thats top dollar just one that I can shoot even if I am not that good due to my vision. I am sure optics will fix the most part of it, but I want to invest in a quality rifle. They say the 3 Gs are where to put your money Guns, Gold, Ground. I do like Rem but dont know models or caliber size for investment purposes. I build AR15 uppers and that I know pretty good other than that I am here to learn from you guys.</div></div>
If you want investment, I would do a Terry Cross rifle or a GAP Hospitaller.(Did I spell that right? Ohh well.) . Either will do you well.. They can build you a sweet rig. I have a Cristensen built rifle and it's sweet as well. Heck, there are many rifle builders out there that I am forgetting or not giving credit to. If you want to spend less there were many good rifle options givin above. Since your vision is impaired then I would highly recommend going high quality on the scope. The greater the light gathering ability and the better the glass, it's going to improve what you see.. You tell us what price range you want to spend on glass and on a rifle and we might be able to help you with it. Don't let other guys ruffle your feathers over your questions. We all took lumps in the beginning when we walked thru the doors... It's the way this site shows it's love for new members. hahahahaha... There are some great guys on this site and there is a ton of experience and there are some that are exeptions to that rule as well. I sometimes find it funny when some guys get all bent out of shape about calling a rifle a "sniper rifle" when this site is called "Snipers Hide" and the rifles we use and build look just like the "snipers rifles" we see on military channels and in books about "snipers". (Watch me catch hell for that one !!!!) Don't get all bent out of shape, I'm just pointing out an observation....Laugh alittle.........................SmokeRolls
