I have a Storm iM3300 case for my long gun, and a Pelican 1720 for my AR. I recommend either. If you plan on traveling with them, especially by air, dont be cheap with the case. Whats $50-100 extra thats protecting a 5 grand+ rifle from damage?
I also recommend custom foam using PE Foam which is more rigid and will protect the rifle a lot more than standard ester foam, which is what is shipped with the cases. I went through My Case Builder and spent $430 on my iM3300 with custom foam and it was well worth it. Very easy to create a template using there online program and bought insurance for free re-dos, in case my measurements were wrong.

Can you tell me if the 52" case will fit in the pelican 1750 or storm im3300?
I like the Triad case, but I'm tired of cleaning mud off my soft-cases. A light hard case for matches would be nice.
For a hard case option, I use a Pelican 1750. MidwayUSA seems to have them on sale every once in a while. I use mine to transport a .300WM with a 26" tube. Have been very happy with it.
Do you mind posting a pic of it? I'd like to squeeze a data book, some ammo, and a few mags in the pelican, so I was thinking the triad bag inside of a foamless 1750, then I can use the soft case just to the range, etc. but use the hard case elsewhere. I have a hot wire table I could cut the foam out with if went just the 1750 route.
im just not sure how soft case in hard case, stacks up hard case w/ in terms of durability, or if it's a pain to have to deal with a soft and hard case at the same time.
I just ordered the Remington 700 Modular Sniper Rifle Case.

That's a really good looking case, but it says it'll fit inside of a pelican 1720, if so I don't think the ID will be long enough, unless the rifle is meant to be stored folded?
I just saw that the Armageddon gear case looks so similar, and heard they make the MSR cases, so I'm gonna guess that it's just a typo in the description. Worth the risk for 50% off anyways, and if it doesn't work for me brownells has that great return policy.
Case ordered, thanks for the heads up!
I've been using a Galati Gear 48" drag bag in Olive Drab that I bought on Amazon. Been very happy with it over the last few years. But Triad's looks good as well.

MSR case is nice, but fundamental flaw of most soft cases is still present: handles centrally located. Dunno about you, but my rifles don't balance in the center.
Had the same problem, so I took it to a shoe repair guy and had him sew some new straps.
