    Remington 700 5R 20"

    That was the original price with mounted scopes. By popular demand, the scopes were removed from the deal and the prices reduced. Last time I looked there was one left, but it had a 24" barrel.

    Mail Call Mondays

    I am interested in you and the wife's thoughts on the carbon XLR with a 20" .308. Is it too light? Nose heavy?

    Can't locate a 700-5R 308, other 700 options?

    That's all I'm seeing lately for sale everywhere, the .223 and .300 WM. Please post details on the new .308 5R when you know something, I'm looking for one myself and that sounds like a nice option.
