    Bought my first bolt gun

    Re: Bought my first bolt gun Looks like a 700 VSSF. (Varmint Special Stainless Fluted). Remington built them for about ten years from around 1994-95 to 2004-05 Great gun, really well balanced. A friend of mine had one in .223, and it was the most accurate Remington factory gun I've ever had...

    B&C Medalist: Bipod Swivel not centered. Big deal?

    Re: B&C Medalist: Bipod Swivel not centered. Big deal? Amen to that! I much rather shoot than deal with a stock issue. Especially when it means the gun is going to be down for weeks or months. I think I expect a certain amount of imperfection with a $200.00 - $300.00 stock when compared to...

    wanting to build most light compact .308 i can

    Re: wanting to build most light compact .308 i can It depends on how light you really want to get... The barrel is likely to be the biggest determiner of the weight of the rifle. Profile, length, flutes... The XCR compact is still sporting a 20" barrel in basically a varmint contour with...

    Looking for a good stock recommendation

    Re: Looking for a good stock recommendation I like the MCM A1-3 as far as light-weight tactical stocks go. Don't know if you are attached to the adjustables, but for the non-adjustable, lightweight tactical stocks, I don't know if you will find one that is more versatile as the A1-3, or...

    Remington 700 SPS Advice

    Re: Remington 700 SPS Advice I think that would be an excellent choice for a "cheep build" elk gun! Have fun with the "build" and good luck with the hunts!

    Question on 700 bottom metal

    Re: Question on 700 bottom metal PTG makes a great product! I have put several on rifles in the past, and they have always worked well. I have done a few of the DIY inlets, and I have found that the results are usually a direct reflection of the amount of patience I have. If you take your...

    Remington 700 SPS Advice

    Re: Remington 700 SPS Advice The SPS should do great for hunting. The only real weakness can be addressed by doing a little stock work on the factory stock. Or, if you can afford, a B&C stock with the aluminum bedding block would take care of all the stock issues for about $225.00 or so...

    Question on 700 bottom metal

    Re: Question on 700 bottom metal I think the Wyatt's is probably the best one of the factory inlet fitting DBMs as far as finding magazines goes. (At least pre New Town). But I think I would have to agree with Little Z28. The PTG DBMs are about half the price of the Wyatt's and they use...

    B&C Medalist: Bipod Swivel not centered. Big deal?

    Re: B&C Medalist: Bipod Swivel not centered. Big deal? Accuracy should come back if you torque to the same specs as long as the stock is not "interfering" any way the old one was not. If the new one is free of the barrel and you get good contact on the receiver and aluminum bedding block of...

    lwrc worth the money ?

    Re: lwrc worth the money ? Maybe off topic slightly, but the title of the post got to me. I Just saw a used REPR with a trijicon 5-25 going for $7500.00 at the LGS. Did have a nice stoney point bipod included... This is just madness!

    What are your feelings on the Forster 3in1 trimmer

    Re: What are your feelings on the Forster 3in1 trimmer I think it will be a decent upgrade fo you. With only one caliber to load I think I would be 100% satisfied with the Forster. There is a lot of measure-trim, measure-trim, when setting up for another caliber. I think I will try the 30...

    CFE 223 in the .308

    Re: CFE 223 in the .308 Perfect. That was exactly what I was after. Must have been having a brain-fart last night. Seems like I looked everywhere besides the source.

    CFE 223 in the .308

    Anyone using CFE 223 to load in the .308? I think I'm going to try a few, as I have CFE, and I do not have Varget. Can anyone recommend a good source for info on loading .308 with CFE 223 and 155gr. to 175gr. projectiles? I haven't got any CFE 223 lists in my reloading manuals, although they...

    Colt M4LE bullet suggestions

    Re: Colt M4LE bullet suggestions I like the Hornady TAP in the 75 gr. They also make it in 55gr. and 60gr. versions. I am shooting the 75 gr. in my 1/7 twist 16" Colt 6920 and I'm getting sub 2 MOA groups with it out to 300 yards. It does about the same with the 55gr. I have shot the 110...
