    Remington 700 Police missing markings

    Ive had my 700P in 300WM for close to 2 years. I have shot just over 1000 rounds with it, at both the range and some various competitions. I have yet to take any game with it, but that day will come as well. I never could get mine to shoot well with lighter bullets, but like I wrote before, it...

    Remington 700 Police missing markings

    My 700P really likes Hornady 212 grain ELD-X and Lapua 220 grain Scenar L, both loaded to 3.5" COL. No one really loads 300 WM to CIP standard COL anyways.

    Rifle Scopes What scopes are you purchasing this year or waiting to be released? 2019 version

    Hate to be a downer, but I am not buying a single scope. I have a Schmidt and a Nightforce so I'm good.

    Rifle Scopes Vortex HS-T

    I really like the 4-16 HS-T for what it is. A no nonsence reliable scope that tracks and it has an easy to use reticle. The 4-16 is a whole lot friendlier to get behind compared to the 6-24 which has a pretty horrible eyebox. As do all Viper series 6-24x scopes. It will get the job done. But it...

    Precision Rifles.....show em!!

    I have a handpump as it is, a good tip is to not let the pressure get too low. I filled it to just slightly above 200 bar, shooting 4 magazines on full power gets it down to just below 150 bar. It takes roughly 130 cycles with the handpump to get it back up to +200 bar. It's not too rough.

    Precision Rifles.....show em!!

    Yeah! It was just awesome. My son started out with 13/16 hits on a small steel target at 56 yards, and he has never held the gun before. Then he shot some apples some 114 yards away. He scored a second round hit on the first one and then a 4 round hit on the second apple. It outshoots my Anchutz...

    Precision Rifles.....show em!!

    Went to the range today with my son. Took my trusty customized R700 in 6,5x47Lapua: And we had a blast with this one, which I just got. An FX Impact PCP rifle in .25 caliber. It is crazy accurate.

    What's the most stupid thing you've been told?

    No, freebore, as stated. He has no clue.

    Rifle Scopes NF ATACR losing clicks?

    My Schmidt & Bender PM2 has been through shooting a competition which started out in a horrible -27 C. It has the older style double turn turrets, non MTC and worked flawlessly through out the day.

    Sendero 300 Win Mag Build

    H1000 and Hornady 212 grain ELD-X also works. I run it in my R700 Police. Get a nicer stock or chassis for it. Thats what I did.

    2-stage triggers?

    Ill have a closer look on the Bix´n Andy TacSport, the smith I have been using started selling them a while back. Thanks for all the suggestions.

    2-stage triggers?

    It has been flogged to death, I know. But what is the hides opinion about this: I was recently reminded on how much I like the Sako TRG triggers, it might acctually be my favourite. But I dont have a TRG myself, I run 2 different customized Remington 700 builds. So the question is, which 700...

    What's the most stupid thing you've been told?

    This is solid gold. In a handloading thread on another board, some guy tunes in and spills his wisdom: This is the picture he posts, as he explains how he measures the "throat" of his barrel so that he knows what COAL he can use. You may notice that it is the muzzle of the barrell that he...

    Comparing two chassis-user opinions please

    I happen to run a KRG W3 on my Remington 700 SA 6.5x47L custombuild, and I have a AICS 1.5 with thumbhole skins on my Remington 700 LA 300WM custombuild. And I have had or tried a bunch of different stocks and chassis over the years. I like the KRG, as it is resonable light, comfortable and...

    Rifle Scopes Val has made the IOR Recon even better

    Phillip61: You are just one sad masochist, aren't you? Why else would you keep coming here and post sad posts where you brag about something that pretty much no one here gives a shit about? If it gets you off, then sure I can understand. If not, its just very very sad.

    120gr 6.5 for competion?

    My barrel never liked the 123 grain Scenars, could not get them to shoot at all. So I stuck to 130 grain Norma GT all the way.

    Anyone using 130 Norma's + H4350 in 6.5x47?

    I have been using Norma GT 130 grain with Norma 203-B powder in my 6,5x47L. It is very stable with single digit ES, but its on the slow side at 2730 fps. Every time I try to speed things up, accuracy goes out the window. The barrell is a Shilen select match and it has passed over 1800 rounds...
