4 Accurate and Affordable Sniper Rifles

Long range shooting is a skill that takes knowledge and a lot of practice to master. Most civilians will use a nice hunting rifle to learn the basics. These are more than adequate for a 300 meter shot or so. But if you want to reach out to 800 or 1000 meters, you need to have a higher end rifle. So if you are serious about long range shooting, you have to invest a little money in a rifle that is better quality and built to higher tolerances. But, a high-end military-level sniper rifle is at least $5,000 and as much as $15,000. That’s more than the average civilian can spend on a rifle. But there are 4 accurate and affordable sniper rifles that are made by big firearm manufacturers. Let’s take a look at them.

Savage Arms 10 BA Stealth

Savage Arms really is an underrated firearm manufacturer. For the price, this is an amazing rifle. A simple, single purpose design with no extra fluff.

Features: Factory Blue Printed Savage Action, Monolithic Aluminum Chassis Machined from Solid Billet, M-LOK forend, One-Piece Picatinny Rail, Fab Defense GLR-16 Buttstock, Muzzle Brake

Ruger Precision Rifle

The Ruger Precision Rifle is very impressive. It generated a huge amount of media and fanfare when it first came out at the end of 2015. Ruger was not able to keep up with the demand for the rifle at first. There are very few bad things that are said about this rifle platform.

Features: Ruger Precision Rifle® Hybrid Muzzle Brake, Cold hammer-forged 4140 chrome-moly steel barrel with 5R Rifling, 20 MOA Picatinny rail, “Upper” receiver and one-piece bolt are precision CNC-machined from pre-hardened 4140 chrome-moly steel, Ruger® Precision MSR stock with QD sling attachment points features a bottom Picatinny rail and soft rubber buttpad.

Length of pull and comb height are adjustable, “Lower” magazine well halves are precision machined from 7075-T6 aluminum and are Type III hard coat anodized, Multi-magazine interface functions interchangeably with AICS and M110/SR-25/DPMS/Magpul-style magazines, Ruger Marksman Adjustable™ trigger is externally adjustable with a pull weight range of 2.25 to 5.0 lbs., two 10-round magazines.

Remington 700 Tactical Chassis

There are many different models of the Remington 700 and many ways to upgrade your existing rifles. But there is no need to upgrade anything on the Remington 700 Tactical Chassis, other than adding a nice scope to it. There is a considerable difference in price for the Remington over the previously mentioned rifles. Hell you can almost buy both the Savage and the Ruger for the same price as the Remington! Is it really that much better? Remington thinks so.

Features: Magpul MAG307 PRS Adjustable with Pistol Grip, Aluminum Chassis with Full Length Acessory Rail, X-Mark Pro Trigger, Target Tactical Bolt Handle

4 Accurate Sniper Rifles that are Affordable

All four of these rifles are really remarkable firearms. Each will shoot a sub-MOA with factory ammo at 100 yards. You will not be disappointed by any of them. Which one to buy? It really depends on the amount of money that you can invest.

If I was buying a 308 Win, I would buy the Ruger Precision Rifle. If I was buying the 6.5 Creedmoor I would go for the Savage Arms 10 BA Stealth. If I was the 300 Win Mag or 338 Lapua Mag I would go with the Remington 700 Tactical Chassis. Just my opinions.
