    Gunsmithing How difficult would this be?

    When the time comes to replace the barrel on my Rem. 700, I am considering changing calibers. Currently the rifle is .308 Win. If I were to change, I would like to go to 7mm WSM. Are there any potential pitfalls in going from .308 to 7mm WSM? Is changing calibers just a matter of changing...

    Gunsmithing Accurize the bolt or replace it?

    I recently got a Rem 700 SPS in .308. I'm planning on putting some coin into this rifle over time. Just put a Nikon Monarch 5-20X44 on it (it ain't a Nightforce but i'm not rich either), next step is a H-S Precision Pol. Sniper stock, green camo me thinks. Then its going to be time to look at...

    Need more powder ideas for .308 since...

    Finding IMR8208 or Varget is like finding a surfboard shop in Nebraska. The vast consensus seems to be that the favorites for .308 are the IMR8208 and Varget, well, I cannot find them around here (Indy) as our selection of places to look for supplies sucks bad so i need some more ideas to try...

    Rem 700 mag length question

    I recently bought a Remington 700 SPS Varmint. I haven't started working up a load yet but thats right around the corner. I checked the OAL of some factory rounds that i'm using to get the brass (Winchester) and its 2.700. When I read about other peoples loads the OAL is usually never below...

    Rifle Scopes any experience with these scopes?

    Leupold VX-II 6-18x40 or Nikon Monarch 5-20x44. Surprisingly, I couldn't find a review of that particular Leupy. I would love to know how those 2 scopes stack up against each other. And how they stack up to the Bushnell Elite 4200 6-24x50 Tactical. Opinions?

    Rifle Scopes seems like the more I read the worse it gets!

    Well, I just got a Remington 700 SPS Varmint in .308. I took it out yesterday to sight it in and was pleased with the rifle. The garbage scope that came on it is another story. I knew it would suck but it was still a good deal so I figured at least I could get shooting while saving for better...

    Rifle Scopes Which one would YOU pick and why?

    I'm looking for a scope to go on a Rem.700 SPS Varmint .308. I've pretty much narrowed it to 2 (maybe 3) options...Vortex Viper 6.5-20x44 mildot or a SWFA SS 20x, the maybe is a Bushnell Elite 3200 7-21x40. Opinions...

    Gunsmithing New project, need advice

    An upcoming project of mine is to build a long range tactical rifle. I've decided to go with .300 RUM. The problem is this...i've never built a bolt action rifle so a couple of questions... How many different components are there to buy? Obviously there are a lot of parts on a diagram but I...

    getting into LR shooting, could use some advice

    I've been wanting to get into LR shooting for a while and I just can't stand it anymore...being able to hit a paper plate at 1000 yds is dang intriguing and my AR just isn't the tool for it. Very soon, I will be getting a Remington 700 SPS Varmint to get started. Due to the closest 1000 yd range...

    Anyone tried Lapua .308 brass?

    I will be getting a .308 boltgun soon. Has anyone tried Lapua brass? I hate to just buy something because of a name but it is a pretty damn good name. I was also thinking of getting a set of Lee custom collet dies. I guess you send them a couple of bullets and brass and they make you a custom...
