    Gunsmithing Remington 5R build suggestions/help

    Re: Remington 5R build suggestions/help Ok it took me awhile to get all the info together and get ahold of H-S Precision but unfortunately they don't make the thumbhole stock for my 300 WM. They ony make it for SA not LA rifles. So I will look towards Manners thumbhole or maybe look into a...

    Gunsmithing Remington 5R build suggestions/help

    Re: Remington 5R build suggestions/help Thanks for the advise! That KMW Sentinel is a sweet stock! The only thing I don't like about it tho is the weight, it's 3lbs heavier than that H S thumbhole stock. And yes those H S detachable mags are spendy, $325, and you only get 3 rounds in a mag...

    Gunsmithing Remington 5R build suggestions/help

    Re: Remington 5R build suggestions/help My budget is open to whatever I need/want to put on this gun. I like that the H S mag assembly is cleaner looking and not as bulking as the AICS type mag that'll catch more on things while out hunting. I'll check out those stocks.

    Gunsmithing Remington 5R build suggestions/help

    I have a Remington model 700 5R in 300 WM 26" barrel and I'm looking into a new stock and a new magazine assembly. I think I have decided I'm going to go with the H S Precision trigger guard and detachable mag assembly but I'm lost on what stock to go with. I like the thumbhole stocks, I feel...

    Remington 5R rifling engraved on barrel

    Re: Remington 5R rifling engraved on barrel I just looked at another 5R .308 24" threaded today that had "5R Rifling" on it. I have seen it on some and then on others like mine it doesn't have it so I was just curious if that meant mine was different or something was wrong with it.

    Remington 5R rifling engraved on barrel

    I have had my Remington 5R for almost a year now and I love it, but I have noticed the more of these rifles I see I notice they have "5R rifling" engraved on the barrel after the caliber engraving and I looked and mine does not. Do just the .308 5R's have this engraving and my .300 WM doesn't...

    Rifle Scopes Bases and mounts for a Nightforce on a 5R

    I have a 5R and not sure what size mounts I should get and what size or 1 piece/2 piece bases I should get to put on it that will work best for a 50mm Nightforce. I just don't want to order a set and find out they don't work and have to send them back and all that. So if anyone has this sent up...

    X-Mark Pro Trigger on Remington's 5R

    Re: X-Mark Pro Trigger on Remington's 5R I got my 5R in and I checked the trigger and it was a touch over 7 pounds! So I ended threading the screw out multiple times and checking it and I finally took the screw out. The lowest the X-Mark would go is just barely under 4 pounds! So I'm gonna...

    Re: BDC scope/turret What do you have on your cards? I have never used one. Is it ranges at where to hold on what MOA with your load and what MOA is 5, 10, 15, and so on mph wind drift?

    Rifle Scopes BDC scope/turret

    I know most on here won't even think about a BDC turret style scope but my question is if your shooting at the same elevation and usually the same temps wouldn't a BDC be just fine? And if you ever went to let's say a higher elevation you could have a different custom turret for that elevation...

    Re: Huskemaw Blue Diamond Series 5-20x50 Rifle Scope Wow...What's the deal with everyone ganging up on someone because they have a different opinion on what scope to use and how to use it? I asked if anyone has used one and also asked for advice from some experienced shooters on how they use...
