    Learning to Shoot Prone - Having Issues

    Along with the above suggestions, you may also need to set up your eye relief on your scope. If you set it up from the bench, it's probably a little off in the prone or alternate positions. Are you having to fight the eye box when in the prone to see everything or to get behind it with no...

    Remington 700

    Don't think you can go wrong with that. If you have a place you can get it for $400 and are planning on re-barreling it anyway, go for it.

    Why we can't have nice things,

    TT replacement trigger issues

    Had the same issue on mine. Had to bump up the oz a bit and I have to fully cycle the bolt (should be doing this anyway when dry firing but other triggers have taught me bad habits).
