Although I really like the look of some of the lifts & knobs put on by some gunsmiths and builders I'd say the KRG Bolt Lift is pretty high on my $/gain list.

This is nothing exotic but I started my 700 5R .308 project 4-5 years ago with a fixed power SWFA scope. I've since added a Kahntrol clamp on muzzle brake, a KRG bolt lift, a few other pieces and a lot of ammo ... together we now do a pretty good job out to 900-1000 yards. I just got it back...

I started my 5R .308 project 4-5 years ago as a first step into the long range rifle arena. Out of the box it was a better shooter than I was with an affordable fixed power SWFA scope. Since then I've added a Kahntrol clamp on muzzle brake, a KRG bolt lift, a few other pieces and a lot of ammo...

I think your personal goal is a good one - don't change the goal, just figure out what it takes to get there ... I'm no expert but I have about 1200 rnds thru my Remington 700 5R .308 with a SWFA scope in the last two years and I'd say if your fundamentals are solid, you have good DOPE on your...

Cremaster - You must have read incorrectly somewhere - The Last Stand target stand system retails for $39.99 per pair (not $80). Add some 1/2" rebar and some AR500 and you're good to go. They're easy to setup, adjustable to any terrain, compact to store and very durable. Look for them at Best...

The German – you have posted some good questions – here are some friendly suggestions. 1) 3/8” AR500 will be plenty fine for shooting .308 or .223 at ranges over 100 yards … or any handgun for that matter. Do NOT shoot at mild steel – it can be very dangerous. Stay away from AR500 targets...

WOW! Everyone told us that we picked a great match to enter as our first and they were right. Joe, Marcus and all the ROs and Scorers put a lot of work into this and it showed - thank you. Squad 4 was awesome - we saw some great shooters, got a lot of help, learned a ton and met some great...

I picked up 1000 rds of 175 SMK .308 this weekend while I was in Phoenix - ordered on 9/5, picked up on 11/8 - all good - thanks Southwest, see you at Rockcastle in January! Chris
