Anyone have one of these?
https://palmettostatearmory.com/psa-sabre-10-forged-20-308-rifle-with-12-5-quad-rail-and-a1-stock-black.html

I am looking to pick up another large frame 308 before the ban in Virginia. I've read mixed results on accuracy.  I am going to put a 3 to 15 or 3 to 18 on it for a precision type rifle.

thanks!!!

I have a 16" and its a fantastic shooter.  With good glass it shoots better than I do.

Thanks, I was not sure if they use the same barrel on all of them or not. I know they are different lengths, but thought some may have better  barrels than the others.

Some Sabres have FN barrels, others are PSA produced in house.

@JD2395

I have that barrel on mine that was previously a 16" sabre (buddy got the same rifle you linked but bought a M110 barrel for it and gave me this one unfired) and getting good accuracy with 168gr SMK and ELD-X loads. I had poor grouping with several different 175gr loads, which was surprising, but I am happy with it.

I have a 3-18 Primary arms GLx on it currently.

I have a buddy with one, and he found the same.  It really prefers lighter loads over heavier. It shoots Winchester m80 149g like some freak of nature.
Something clever belongs here.
