Ok I can not take it any more I saw on the news tonight "sniper rifle seized in drug raid" then showed an sks with a red dot on a scout mount. The media is not the only one to blame either. Some folks right here on THR and other places will call just about most scoped rifles a SNIPER RIFLE:banghead: Well oh really does that make my winchester .22lr a sniper rifle too it has a scope? Come on give me a break here. The words Sniper and Rifle only go together if it belongs to or is being used by a Sniper so stop all of this Want-a-be nonsense. I for years have had a Rem 700 Sendero in 7mm mag with a nice scope and a bipod a lot of guys would call it a sniper rifle but not I. I call it a Bean field Rifle OR BFR for short because that is where I use it during hunting season.
