In the precision rifle community, there are a ton of platforms that one can choose to run, whether you are a competition precision shooter, or a tactical precision shooter/sniper. Â Operating as a sniper with the 75th Ranger Regiment, my platform of choice was the SR-25 MK 11 MOD 0. Â It easily held a 1 MOA […]

The “Reaper 33” AR-15!
After talking with the guys over at Arsenal Democracy, we decided to build an AR-15 upper named “Reaper 33”! Â Something that I take great pride in, is the fact that the “Reaper 33″ is not only made from high quality material, but it is manufactured here in the US by former and active duty Special […]
Blaser R93 LRS2 Sniper Rifle!
During a SOFREP radio interview with myself and Brandon Webb, the topic came up about sniper rifles.  Brandon mentioned the Blaser R93 LRS2 sniper rifle after I stated that I am getting a custom sniper rifle built (.308 on a Rock Solid Stock).  Not fully recognizing what he had just said until much later, I had […]

Mcrees Chassis G5 Folder Review
I wrote a series a few months back about building a custom precision rifle. In the series I highlighted a few good stock options that I consider to be some of the very best on the market. Among those mentioned was the Mcrees Chassis by Mcrees Precision. I was so impressed with the Mcrees Chassis […]
The 14.9mm SOP Extra Long Range Rifle
The 14.9mm SOP is an incredible extra long range rifle project that a number of people at Snipers Hide have been collaborating on. The huge rifle fires a very long and heavy projectile with a high ballistic coefficient giving it extreme accuracy. It has 0.5 MOA accuracy at 3000 yards and remains supersonic out to […]
One of My Personal Favorite Bolt Action Sniper Rifles: The Blaser
Why I know that the future of guns are not “bolt action” rifles, my favorite bolt action gun would have to be the innovative straight pull action of the Blaser (owned by Sig Arms). Sniper rifles should be minimalistic. They are for hunting and don’t need to have miles of rail system or every damn […]
