    Remington 700 Purchase Advice

    If you are set on a Remington, then get the older of the two rifles. I have 5 Rem 700's and the older one (pre 1999) locked up tighter, smoother action and tighter tolerances. Not to bash Remmy but my objective observation is the newer two of my rifles both had excessive headspace, play in the...

    Rifle Scopes OPTICS NOT MADE IN CHINA.

    Globalization of optics is all about the bottom line. Cheap labor, lower cost for environmental impact, as the actual production creates a lot of hazmat. In the end, buy what you feel is the best quality for the price, for the intended application. I have scopes by S&B, Vortex, Leupy, Ziess...

    Any 300BLK 110 GMX loads?

    Thanks for the tip, I just checked and nothing posted. I only ask because CO has a min ft/lbs requirment. I could always shoot the factory (meets 100ft/lbs at 100Y), but I have 100 110GMX and would like to roll some. I dont want to burn through 30 or 40 looking for a node as those suckers are...

    Any 300BLK 110 GMX loads?

    Looked at published data, but most 110 for 300blk are using varmint bullets. Im trying to replicate the Hornady custom load. They have a 110 GMX going 2285 from the muzzle, seated 2.210. Im using a 16" CMMG Resolute upper, suppressed. Looking to drop some muleys. I already have 30-06, 308...

    Shifting point of impact

    You can try waiting 2 min in between shots, but from the sounds of it, your rifle does not like that ammo. The flyer may be you, but just not a node that works well with your rifle. One simple thing to also try, is to pressure bed the tip of the forestock. You can do this with some cork gasket...

    Reloading Equipment WTB 200gr or larger .30 cal bullets

    I have 70 200gr Sierra Game kings, they are a spritzer boat tail. Can at least use them for some fouling shots, or if you need to harvest a moose at the range. I can trade them out for some 30 cal 125's Im loading up for my 300 blk. Or any 6.5 123gr for my 6.5 Grendel I can flat rate small...

    Rifle Scopes Dial vs push button scope illumination

    My SB has one. You can remove it and program the intensity levels for each push etc. Leupold push through intensity until it flashes twice. Up then down. I just keep a few 2032 batteries in my kit.

    Rifle Scopes Dial vs push button scope illumination

    The pushbutton is very convenient if the scope shuts off automatically. You just lift and shoot. Obviously it is not too effective if your humping the rifle all over, but you can set the brightness and leave it.

    How accurate is accurate? FACTORY AMMO

    Yes, I have used it on a Mule doe, around 80Y. Clean entrance, lung shot, decent exit (nothing excessive). No seperation or any other issues. I have plenty of bullets and ammo to choose from, SST, GMX , Nos BT, Accubond, scenars etc. I just wanted something off the shelf that can perform double...

    Remington LTR conversion?

    I too love the 6.5's, but nothing wrong with a good 500Y 308 rifle. I say thread it or lop off 3/4-1" and thread it to see how you like it. This way there is not too much invested and the brake/supressor may be what you wanted. I had one of my Remmys chopped to 16.25" and it fits in a shotgun...
