Thread: Bolt action rifle recommendation

Thanks all, a lot to take in.

Read up on triple 2 didn't get any wiser.

Remmy 700 bdl was a beautiful piece.

I guess it's down to what I'm going to do. Not sure if service rifle matches are still a thing.

Service rifle shoot will still be a thing - they just wont feature semi-auto service rifles - but there are many antique bolt action service rifles and people who shoot / compete with them.

Suddenly all the Fudds who refused to use semis have a big skill/practice time advantage.

Generally nobody who shoots service rifle, shoots a bolt action, unless it is specifically sanctioned by the event. As a general rule, fudds don't shoot service rifle.

It will just be a lot smaller
