Jason Klein Posted July 10, 2015 Share Posted July 10, 2015 Never heard of them. Where are they located, and what are you wanting them to do? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSCHIEFEN Posted July 11, 2015 Author Share Posted July 11, 2015 MOARifles.com Oregon I have several long range rifles including 2 setup for hunting! Now looking to build either a 338 Lapua or 300 RUM in a 7.5 to 8# rifle for 1000 yard shots on Elk! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TonytheTiger Posted July 11, 2015 Share Posted July 11, 2015 Sounds painful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wgj3 Posted July 11, 2015 Share Posted July 11, 2015 I'm with Tony, that sounds like a world of hurt waiting to happen. Not sure who would get more of a thump, the elk or the nut pulling the trigger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlightMurse Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 Are you planning on putting a brake on it? I think an 8LB 30-06 kicks plenty hard enough, a Lapua better weigh at least 14lb for me to play with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Graham Smith Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 Can't recall much but do recall seeing a discussion elsewhere. Definitely geared more to hunting than target. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
troupe Posted July 19, 2015 Share Posted July 19, 2015 I know this is for rifles, but I have had MOA do shotgun work for me and they are top notch to work with. Tom is a super guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve RA Posted July 19, 2015 Share Posted July 19, 2015 +1 on the shotguns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doug H. Posted July 19, 2015 Share Posted July 19, 2015 I know this is for rifles, but I have had MOA do shotgun work for me and they are top notch to work with. Tom is a super guy. I think MOA Precision that does shotguns, known as "Openclassterror" here on BE, http://moaprecision.com/, is a different outfit than the MOA rifle company listed by the OP. They are located in different cities and don't appear to be affiliated. Doug Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve RA Posted July 20, 2015 Share Posted July 20, 2015 (edited) Evidently you are correct and a few of us were uninformed. http://www.moarifles.com/ Edited July 20, 2015 by Steve RA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jon9116 Posted February 25, 2017 Share Posted February 25, 2017 GAP or bust. Jk. They look good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dagsta Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 I'm a GAP guy all the way!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ltdmstr Posted November 23, 2017 Share Posted November 23, 2017 (edited) Yeah, GAP does nice work. But they certainly aren't the only game in town. Defaulting to GAP for a bolt action is like going to Wilson or Bear for a 1911. They may be good, but there are plenty of other options. Particularly if you want something truly custom. Long Rifles Inc. builds probably number in the thousands, and the last one the did for me shot 1/4 MOA. Plus they built the rifle to my specs in a matter of weeks, not months or years. Short Action Customs is also very good. As for MOA, why take a chance when there are lots of others with proven reps?
