Remington 700
Secret Service Agent Tim Collin (Dennis Haysbert) and hit man Michael McCarty (Richard Jenkins), having both been assigned to kill Luther Whitney (Clint Eastwood) (each without the other realizing it) both use take-down Remington 700 rifles with major customizations to improve accuracy.

Sako TRG-S
One of the two other men at the range has some sort of take-down version of a Sako M995 TRG-S. It is probably the same rifle used in Most Wanted.
