Thread: new canadian ranger rifle being evaluated

The Canadian Rangers are a component of the Canadian Military. Briefly thier main duties are surveillance, sovereignty patrols, first response, scouting etc. A large percentage of them are aboriginals of many tribes of Indians....but not all.....mostly reflects the population of a given isolated Canadian vast wilderness areas. Since their inception in the 1940's they have been armed with the Lee Enfield SMLE#4 army rifles in .303. Aside from human threats, these people encounter wolves and polar bears and other bad ass criters plus they shoot game animals for sustenance. The old SMLE rifles are aging out and they are replacing them with a scout type rifle in .308 Win based upon the Tikka T 3 stainless laminate rifle. They are being evaluated now.
