Remington quality
No dramas bud. It's -2°C here this morning so i couldn't be bothered getting them all out to take a photo for you, but there's a few of the main ones there. This is my competition gun. Started as a Rem 700 ADL TAC but was bought second hand. I had the bolt knob fitted, bolt fluted and a new...- Zigjib

Remington quality
No most of the ones I own are older RR gen receivers. There's a couple of random other ones in there as well but most are RR. The "new" Remingtons i've only had a little bit of hands on with. I don't own any as I haven't had a need at this point but we've had a few on the line from different...- Zigjib

Remington quality
I'm going to be that annoying dude.... I own 13 Remington 700s and used to own 3 more. In all of those, most are the dreaded RR receivers. I've had 2 that were a problem; 1st was the pin hole for one of the trigger retention pills was drilled too wide and needed to be soldered and re-drilled...- Zigjib

300blk In Precision SBR Bolt Action
Dunno how useful this will be to you but we did testing in the 300blk. This is our 12.5" barrel results. There's no accuracy results here but this is the energy. Accuracy wise, the hand loaded nosler 125gr was the best, but the 110gr V-Max was awesome as well for the light and the Winchester...- Zigjib

I'll double check for you; Edit: attached mate. This isnt the main test we did but shows some MV. Bit slower here, barrel was brand new. I'll definitely double check though- Zigjib

SOCOM and USMC got Nightforce optics ATACR 7-35x56 and have the T3 reticle. Army made their own mil grid reticle. To the best of my knowledge, the Mk22 in US Army service is Mark5HD 5-25 only.- Zigjib

What is "long range"?
Hell yeah, lets argue! I've been having this discussion a lot lately through professional channels and I've been trying to come up with a solid definition for what "long range" actually is. Most people will typically reply "it depends on the cartridge", but I just HATE that because it's not a...- Zigjib

The "New" Barrett MRAD Thread!!!!!!
I can't find the link now, which makes me a liar.... but there's definitely a new butt pad assy you can buy. It replaces that fully adjustable LOP with a non adjustable for LOP one. It still allows the pad to move up and down using a screw. A lot of the excess material in the butt Assy is...- Zigjib

The "New" Barrett MRAD Thread!!!!!!
Zero issue running the 1/8 with 308 bud. Haven't gone lower than 168gr at this point though but shouldn't be any issues. We are running 185gr FGMM ammo and it's insanely consistent for factory ammo. ES/SD is sitting at 8fps on average for nearly 200 rounds now. Ours has the 17" barrel and we...- Zigjib

The "New" Barrett MRAD Thread!!!!!!
The Nightforce is a good option too. Just something to be aware of; The repeated slamming closed of the receiver MIGHT be causing a shift in zero. We have to open the receiver and remove the bolt after every serial/range trip for safety. The receiver is opened, bolt removed, rifle cleared...- Zigjib
