And I thought my long range rifle was old school. I have a Parker Hale Enfield with the beautiful montecarlo stock and PH heavey barrel. It is the only rifle in canada that can legally hold 10 rounds(everything else is pinned at 5). It is the fastest smoothest boltgun (the Krag is nice to)and PH does an amazing job when they made it basicly using the Enfield action on a custom rifle. Unfortunatly I can't afford a real Parker Hale bipod and have to go with a fake Harris for now.
303 might seem like a strange choice but it is like 30-06 here in canada and is available at every gas station.I also have plans to make a scout rifle version(like a bolt action Socom 16) out of a bubba'd enfield with a synthetic stock ,red dot scope and good irons with the ability to use the clip loading system.
Another of my favorite rifles that I don't own is a Norinco M305 which is a chinese version of a semiauto M14. They are extremly reliable and at 399$ canadain
make an awesome platform for customizing. This version with all the bells and whistles is still cheaper than a stock Springfield version.
Another semi auto I like is the .300 winmag BAR. The .300 is a very powerfull round that unlike the 338 Lapua does not cost 6$ a shot and since it looks like a deer gun is very nonthreating to sheeple.
