What is the best sniper rifle? What is the best sniper scope? How about laser rangefinders, bipods, ballistics tables, barometers, thermometers, GPS systems, infrared thermometers, and all the other long range shooting equipment? In this video, Rex discusses the hierarchy of long range weapons equipment. After the shooter spotter team, the rifle scope is the most crucial piece of equipment to get right. After that, you are free to choose from many different rifle options whether they be semi-automatic for designated marksmen, bolt action rifles for benchrest shooters, tactical bolt actions for military operators, or antimaterial rifles for hard target interdiction. Rex also discusses how peripheral equipment will be important to calculate accurate firing solutions out in the field.

S1 E9 • Bolt Action Design and Barrel Selection

From the Remington 700 to the Winchester Model 70 to the 1898 Mauser, basic bolt action designs have remained largely the same for the last 110 years. Because of these similarities between modern bolt action designs, snipers have numerous options when selecting their bolt action rifles. Most any modern centerfire bolt action rifle you may have hiding in your closet will be completely adequate for long range applications. There are many rifle barrels to choose from. TiborasaurusRex covers barrel features and their long range applicability in detail. Heat flex, barrel length, barrel contour, and twist rates are explained.
