    Best high end action(s) for field use?

    Seems like the problem with the 700/clones for field use is the trigger. Drop it in the snow or mud and they don’t always fair well. Tikka, Mauser based actions seem to fair better in real world conditions. Maybe someone will come along with a 700 clone but design a sealed trigger system that...

    The Modern Scout Rifle

    If Cooper was still around I suspect he’d have a quality lpvo (1-6/10) mounted above the action, not forward.

    I’d be interested to know the specifics of your training. My dad was a WW2 historian of sorts and I remember him telling me how fierce the Finnish people were and how the Russians would probably never make that mistake again.

    So o ut of date...

    Was there any training w the rifle they handed you? Did you have to zero the scope or figure it out by “Russian” windage?

    .450 bushmasters 16” vs. 22” ruger?

    When and if my state goes to straight wall for deer I will build a 450BM. 18 inches looks to be about perfect, still handy and still efficient.

    .450 bushmasters 16” vs. 22” ruger?

    Match Grade Machine did a barrel cut “study” on the 450bm. They concluded that anything longer than 19 had very little return on investment.

    Rem 700 bolt replacement questions

    I wonder if a place like LRI would make you a bolt for you? Might be worth a phone call.

    I need a recommendation for a better 308.

    For what they are they are solid stocks and in my experience interface well w the action. They would be much more popular if not for the KRG Bravo

    I need a recommendation for a better 308.

    Magpul stocks are know to fix accuracy issues replacing the factory plastic stocks.

    Trigger for REM 700

    I’ll take a look at those, his AR triggers are outstanding. As stated earlier, durability is a high priority.

    Trigger for REM 700

    I’ve heard that as well in reference the Super 700. I take the scope off my rifle and drop test it whenever installing or adjusting the trigger. I’ve never had an issue with the rifle not being drop safe but my pull weights are pretty heavy compared to most on this forum.

    Trigger for REM 700

    Rifle came with a 40x, great trigger but when the great trigger scare occurred and I entered the rifle serial number, it showed that it was under recall. I pulled it at that time, even though I didn’t believe the 40x was the trigger being recalled. Personally owned rifle with an LE...
