I am looking to buy a new 3P rifle this spring, and I'm looking for some suggetions. i am considering an Anschutz 2013, or a walther KK300. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

All the top brands can do their own part. I shoot a kk200 and love it, I've held a kk300 and didn't like the feel of it as much. It's basically which one you like the most. Try to hold different ones to get a feel for what you like the most, also weight is an issue for some so you might want to look at that.

Iam a big fan of the ANS 1913, Its a great 3p rifle. The 2013 series are really coming around also. Another rifle to look at is the FWB 2700 super match.. Its a nice rifle for the money. I have shot walthers i just never took a liking to them. I would try to get your hands on as many as you can to try them out first.

Yeah, i was considering the 2700 also. I had a chane to handle a 2013 earlier today at a sectional match, and I really like it. It really sucks how the exchange rate is so bad right now. All the guns jumped about $400 from last years prices. Most guys that i shoot with have very similar guns, including a lot of 1913's.

The kk300 had a more square forend that felt uncomfortable to me.

I have a 2700 alu and really like it! Very accurate and feels great to shoot in all positions. Every bit as good (or better) IMO as an anschutz.

Does the 2700 have a wheel to adjust the trigger? My coach's gun is an older FWB and it has that feature.

yes the fwb 2700 has the wheel to adjust the trigger. actually there are two wheels now. I have it on my fwb 700. pretty cool feature but once its set you dont need to touch it
