    Pressure signs in a Rem 5R

    I'm working up a load in my 308 5R factory rifle. Using 4064 powder. Max load is 45.5 grains which is slightly compressed in Win brass. I've gone up from 90% to max load. I don't have any ejector flow or head stamp deformities. I DO get primer flattening and slight primer flow even on...

    Looking for a starting point in today's market with 20" Rem 700 5R (308)

    As the title says, I have a 20" Rem 5R 308. This rifle is about a half minute gun with 175gr FGMM. I have experience reloading, but not for 308. I have brass and primers already and need to source powder and projectiles. 175 SMK seem easy enough to run across but powder has been an issue. My...

    Spray painting stainless steel

    I'd like to paint my 700 5R that has a stainless barrel and action. I did a test run on one of my muzzleloaders which also has a stainless barrel and the Krylon flakes off the barrel without much effort. I have painted a number of parkerized and anodized rifles/parts over the years and it holds...

    Remington 700 barrels with Savage style barrel nut

    Hi guys, I'm looking for a barrel that can be swapped at home. I know Bergara makes one and have heard others make them as well. Can anyone provide other manufacturers who offer these? The specific barrel I'd be looking for is a 243 heavy or medium varmint contour. Thanks.

    Caliber selection for 650yd steel matches

    Hi folks, After some time off, I've decided to get back into long range shooting over the winter and into 2014. I have previously owned two Savage 10's, one in 223 and one in 308 that were great shooters but I ended up selling off due to lack of time to shoot them. I have some time opening up...

    Advanced Marksmanship Help diagnosing these targets?

    (If this type of post isn't allowed and I missed it, my apologies). I got out today to shoot my new-to-me 700. Rifle details: 308 20" 1 in 12 Millet TRS-1 I am not extremely experienced with precision rifle shooting, but I have dabbled here and there. I had an old Savage in 223 I could shoot...

    Folding stock options for Rem 700?

    Hey guys, I did some searching here and on the net and haven't come up with much. I'd like to get a folding stock for a 700 I have (308). I travel quite a bit and folding guns just makes things easier. So far I have only found the AICS and a few offerings from Choate, though I am having some...

    Savage gurus...advice needed

    Hey guys, I'm new to the forum. I have very limited long range rifle experience, but would like to build a new stick and learn more. I used to have a Savage 10fp in 223rem mounted in a Choate Sniper II stock (bought the whole package used). It was a heck of a shooter but I didn't use it much...
