    Triad Tactical Large Stock Pack on Savage TR?

    Sorry for bumping an old ass post, but it came up in my search. OP did you ever order the large pack? I don't have my rifle yet but I'm ordering stuff from Triad today and need to know if the large pack will fit that Boyd's stock or not. Rifle is coming in on Monday so I guess I could wait...

    Is my crown ok?

    I think I will have to come back and re-examine the problem when I start shooting past 100 yards, like Aaron said.

    Is my crown ok?

    Update Update in case anyone's wondering... I took the rifle back out two more times and shot groups. On the first trip after the one that inspired this post, I had the RO shoot a group out of my gun. He shot a 3-shot group measuring 0.800" at 100 yards using Federal GMM. That same trip I...

    Stainless steel, Im sold

    Nice. I still use my vibratory tumbler for brass that is straight from the range. After the initial cleaning in some lizard litter media I will lube, decap, and resize. Then I'll throw it into my wet tumbler with ss media. Can't beat that looks brand new shine.

    Is my crown ok?

    I think I'm going to just shoot it for a few hundred more rounds then see about getting a muzzle brake! :D

    Is my crown ok?

    I appreciate your replies. I'm not worried about group size right now so much as I want my rifle to be all it can be and let me grow into matching its shooting potential. Guess there's no harm in shooting it and seeing how it does as I get more comfortable with it. Wish I had a better trigger...

    Is my crown ok?

    I'm in Southern California, specifically Chino. It's hot as hell, smells like cow shit, and there's flies all over the place but hey it's home.

    Is my crown ok?

    Thanks for your encouragement. I've only had the rifle for a week. That group was from this past Saturday which was the 1st time I took it out, and the first time I shot 100 yards with a scope. My first group was about 6" wide during sight in w/ some CBC 147gr. I was pretty proud to improve...

    Is my crown ok?

    Here's a pic of my 10 shot group at 100 yards with 168gr FGMM. Keep in mind I'm brand new to this and had only shot a 308 rifle once before.. EDIT: not sure how that came out rotated. looks fine in my phone.

    Is my crown ok?

    I'm not sure what to make of this because this is my first bolt rifle and I am new to long range shooting. I don't know how bad this will affect accuracy or if I should even worry about it. While cleaning my 5R I noticed the crown has a slight "dent" so I grabbed the camera to take pics and...

    Rifle Scopes Need a scope for my new Remington 700 5R...thinking SWFA SS 3-15x42?

    I think in terms of reticle preference I would rank them as Bushnell, Vortex, SWFA, then Weaver. I'm not even sure how much that will matter but something tells me it will be a smart move to get the reticle I like most. I'm also thinking any one of these scopes could be put on an AR platform...

    Rifle Scopes Need a scope for my new Remington 700 5R...thinking SWFA SS 3-15x42?

    Thanks for the reply. I was also looking at the Bushnell 3-12x44 with G2DMR reticle. I'm not sure how I should go about deciding what scope to get? Should I be putting emphasis on magnification? I understand valued features like FFP, zero stop, nice turrets, etc but is there anything else I...

    Rifle Scopes Need a scope for my new Remington 700 5R...thinking SWFA SS 3-15x42?

    Hi guys, 1st post here. I'm a complete newbie to long range shooting, and I have not had much time behind a rifle at that. However after shooting a buddy's SPS Tactical I knew I would really like this sport. I found myself an amazing deal on a brand new Remington 5R in 308 and now need to...
