Greetings and Newbie Questions

[tricitiesgtr]

My name is Greg Smith. My father, Claude Smith, was an active NBRSA shooter from the mid 70's to early 2000's. My father passed in early 2016. While he traded quite a bit of gear in his latter years, there are three benchrest rifles still in the arsenal that I would like to discuss.

There is an unlimited rail gun with both 6 PPC and 22 PPC barrels. Not sure of gunsmith. As I have not been active in the NBRSA since my early teens, I have no idea if the PPC is still in use.

Also what appears to be a 6 PPC Sporter Class (again not sure if this is even a class anymore) with Stolle-Panda action.

The last is a 6-284 Remington 700 action that apparently James Messer fabricated for my father. James and my father were good friends and traveled the circuit together.

Thanks all...

First ifle appears to be a 700 rebarreled and looks to be a hunting rifle. Yes, the next is a Panda, probably a LV or sporter. Yes, the last is an unlimited rifle of an unknown builder. Mr. Messer had a good reputation.
