My first time shooting past 300yd, at our club’s annual “Shoot what you Brung" Prone Day. I was shooting a Rem700P 308WIN 24in barrel, with SWA 175 SMK and Bushnell 6-24x5- FFP scope, on 20x (glass gets hazy past 20x). The stock is OEM with an adjustable cheek riser added. Sunny, low 90s, very...

Washing ACU, Army Combat Uniform Hmmm... never though washing my cloths with Tide would make them easier to see at night.

OK - new to NV and just have a PVS-14/helmet system on order (with SF-M1 for helmet-mount). For purposes of indoor/outdoor home defense, and night coyote hunting in the NE, I'll be looking for lasers and lights for a SIG556R (with ACOG 3x30), SIG556 (with EOTech XPS3-4 and 3xMag) and Glock 17...

So I have a home field of view limited into dark woods on 3 sides and 300yd open road ahead. Three low street lights on the road ahead before an S-turn with woods behind turn and along left side - two other homes on right side of road. I am on high ground looking ahead, with upwards slopes to...

My Rem700P 308 trigger is pretty heavy. Should I get that adjusted and a trigger job by a gunsmith, or just buy an aftermarket trigger? If the latter, any suggestions? Lots of brands and model out there...

I am shooting a Rem700P 26" with 308SMK175g from Southwest Ammo. I have a Harris bipod with the pivot base. When I shoot, I am trying to load the bipod forward against a sandbag, but I still get enough rifle jump to often disrupt my target re-acquisition. The bipod hops some and pivots. I'd...

So I have zeroed and box tested my Rem700P stock rifle and Bushnell Elite 4200 6x24 FFP mil/mil scope with Federal 175SMK at 100yd. I am taking a course soon using SouthwestAmmo's 175SMK. I have a new EC Pro Chronology digital with USB. I would appreciate advice on testing my ammo/rifle - I...

SO my Rem700P 308 26" barrel is tapered, so no clamp-on brake for me. I see brakes like the Badger Thruster come in 3 threadings. 3/4-28 5/8-24 3/4-24 Is one preferred over another should I later swap out to a supressor? That would be the plan, but the cost/paperwork make take a while.

I'm looking for a clamp-on muzzle brake for my Rem700P 26" stock rifle. What are the options for ordering off-the-shelf (if that's possible)? Thanks.

While I tacked on this question at the bottom of the Reloading 101 sticky, it hasn't gotten any attention so I've posted it here. I'm new to reloading. Reading the Reloading 101 thread, I get the impression that handloading 308 for precision rifle might not be done right with a unit such as a...

Newbie question: With my SIG556 Classic, I've struggled with eyerelief when using a DPMS USGI cotton cuff sling from prone, sitting & standing. Granted the folding collapable stock is short, but when I set eyerelief for standing, I find the sling too tight prone and eyerelief too close in...

http://www.sigsaueracademy.com/courses/ShowCourseDetails.aspx?CourseID=71 I live just down the road a few miles, so attending would be easy. The 300yd range limitation is obvious (I hear they can open up to 500yd by blocking a road), but any other feedback on this as a newbie course?

So I'm sure everyone has their preferences. But I see a trend toward beating up Leupold for being a lesser-value scope. As a newbie, struggling with purchasing a scope for my new Rem 700P, I keep wondering if I'm making good decisions. I suppose I should shut-up, get the gear, and start...

Newbie here - picked up a Rem 700P (26") today - $795 out the door. I'm looking at a Leupold M4 3.5-10x40 scope but can't quite figure the base and rings needed from Leupold website. Links to their scope/rifle mount selector page seem broken. While I'm winging it, I think I'm looking for a...

Newbie here, trying to digest it all. Many speak of the Rem 700 PSS as a good low-end starter rifle, but I see Remington doesn't list that anymore. Is it discontinued? If so, what's the equivalent NIB rifle? Thanks-
