    What is the longest COAL a .308 can have?

    Re: What is the longest COAL a .308 can have? I'm loading for my Rem 700 SPS Tactical .308 and I've got 168 Hornady HPBT and 175 SMK's seated to 2.830" and they fit fine. I'll have to measure mine to see what the max is.

    Confusing .308 reload results...solved!

    Re: Confusing .308 reload results Well, I think I found the issue. After bedding the aluminum channel into the stock and giving the barrel a little more room the rifle is shooting much better. I shot the same loads at the same distance at the same location. The original loads shot into...

    Confusing .308 reload results...solved!

    I just got back from the range and I'm not really sure what to think of the results. Maybe someone here has an idea for me. I'm shooting a Rem 700 SPS Tactical .308...1/12, 20" barrel. It's got an EGW 20 MOA base, Burris XTR 30mm rings, and a 6.5-20x44 Vortex Viper scope. I bought it a...

    Gunsmithing Pictures of welded bolt handle

    What is involved in TIG welding a Rem 700 bolt handle to the bolt body? Does anyone have a picture of where people are welding them? I can TIG pretty well and have access to the best machine Miller makes, so I'm thinking it's something I can do myself. But, I may be missing something...
