    Gunsmithing Precision gunsmith listings?

    Are there any compiled lists of gunsmiths for precision rifles anywhere on the forums? Preferably broken down into states. It's hard to weed through all the gunsmiths on Google who only build AR and hunting rifles with no first hand knowledge of how to blueprint a Remington 700 action.

    Gunsmithing What is really needed to true up a factory Rem. Action?

    I'm drawing closer to getting all my parts together to drop off to the gunsmith for a rebarrel. It's a Remington 700 L/A I'm having trued while at the gunsmith. My question is the action, how much machine work is not enough for long range shooting? The local gunsmith says he only trues the...

    Re-barreling a 700 at home?

    I'm wondering why everyone says you have to have a gunsmith re-barrel your Rem. 700 action? What is to stop someone from getting a barrel threaded, muzzle cut/crowned, and chamber cut from the smith and install the barrel yourself? Barrel wrench, chamber finish reamer, and a go/ no go gauge set...

    300wm vs 7rm external ballistics past 1000yrds?

    I'm sure this topic has come up more than once or twice but I'm trying to find a direct comparison of external ballistics between the two rounds. Preferably bullet weights in the 168-180gr weight for the 7mm Rem Mag and 208-220gr for the 300 Win Mag. These should both be over the mid .600 BC...

    7-300wm or 7 Rem Mag?

    I'm looking to purchase a new barrel for my R700 chambered in 7 Rem Mag but I'm contemplating a 7-300wm chambering when I do. I have a few questions though and figured here would be the best place to ask. First off I'm new to reloading, I've been doing my research, but I'm wondering if neck...

    Advice on good Bore guides?

    I'm looking for advice on a good bore guide for my LA Rem 700. Nothing that will break the bank but nothing poor quality. Also a good place to purchase one? Sent from my HTC6500LVW using Tapatalk

    Need help choosing a clambering for LA

    My brain is about explode from all the conflicting info or lack of info from searching Google! I have a long action Remington 700 7mm rem. mag. I'm going to be re-barrelling the rifle and I'm torn on what round to choose. I know I want something in a 7mm or .30 caliber, capable of 1 mile hits...

    Remington 700 ADL?

    Anyone know of or used any of the 700 ADL rifles you find at big retail stores like Academy, Cabelas, or Dick's to build a rifle from? I'm asking because I'm looking to build a rifle soon and at $380 it's the best deal by far when all I'm wanting is the action. Brownells wants $450ish for their...

    New member to sight and soon sport.

    Hello everyone, I've always been interested in long range shooting and plan to get into the sport over the next year. I'm hoping I can take a lot from the veterans here and put it to use. I do not have a rifle yet but plan on starting with an economy build to start and add on as skill and...
