I liked this idea so much I decided to see if I could start a trend where we include our Tool(s) of the Trade in our signature so we know about where we are each coming from.

I have three precision rifles:
1. Sako TRG-42 in .338 Lapua has a 5rnd detachable magazine with a 27" bbl and a Nightforce 5.5 X 22 with NPR-2 reticle
2. Sako TRG-22 in .308 has a 10rnd detachable magazine with a 26" bbl and a Nightforce 3.5 X 15 with the NPR-1 reticle
3. Tikka T3 tactical in .308 has a 5 rnd detachable magazine with a 20” bbl and a Nightforce 3.5 X 15 with the NPR-2 reticle

Don’t ask which is my favorite, that is like asking a parent to pick their favorite child. I love them all equally they each have their own redeeming qualities and uniqueness to them.



Oh in the event anyone missed this previously from another thread Nightforce rules!

A M-24 at work, but at home (personal weopons), I have a pair of SAKO TRG rifles. A TRG-22 with a Leo. Mark4 M1 LR/T and a Gemtech Sandstorm suppressor (first one of the line w/ 18x1 metric theads). The other is a TRG-42 with a Nightforce 5.5x22. They shot so good (appox 1/3 MOA) they make me look far better than I am!
