    Gunsmithing crowns

    Re: New guy range report: Remington 5R .308, pic's I am very satisfied with mine. As far as the Xmark goes, good luck. I also got mine down to 2 lbs for about 100 rds then it started to increase in pull weight. I re-adjusted and could not get it to safety check at the same weight of pull. I...
