    Hello, I'm looking for your opinions on sporting/hunting rifle solely for target shooting 50m out to 100 mostly prone shooting, Anschutz 64 MPR or 1710 D HB, would there be much difference in shootability and accuracy between the 64 action with 2 stage trigger and heavy target barrel, and the better 54 action on the 1710 D HB.

    Hi Wadi ,the 1710 should prove a more accurate rifle for target shooting .
    Its mainly down to the action .
    2x rear locking lugs and stiffer more precise action setup .

    The 64 action is horrible when it gets old and worn. I'd never buy one after fighting DURC's ones for years.

    thanks guys for the replies, I may keep saving then, cus them 1710's aren't cheep, a guy on an American forum summed it up well when replying to a similar query, he said buy the 54 because if you buy the 64 you will want a 54.
