    Joining the hide, first day with my new rifle

    Close. Its a DW Guardian actually so its alloy framed - about 4oz lighter than the CBOBs IIRC. I have at least 2k through the gun and its flawless as long as you clean it regularly. Shooting it dirty, I was still able to hit my 8" gong from 120yd with some constancy which is exceptional for...

    Joining the hide, first day with my new rifle

    The rest of the day was spent playing around with pistols wagering pints of beer on naked shots to 140yd with our 1911s I hate running out of ammo

    Joining the hide, first day with my new rifle

    All, Glad to meet all of you. I have been stalking the forum for quite a while now and finally decided today was the day I wanted to contribute. I've learned so much from this forum about my platform and reloading (300RUM) and I want to thank everybody for the information you have provided...

    Help me identify this Rem 700

    Re: Help me identify this Rem 700 Lrt - the rifle is EXACTLY like the picture with the only exception being the two studs up front. Is yours 300RUM also? While I'm asking - how do you like it? How is the barrel life?

    Help me identify this Rem 700

    Re: Help me identify this Rem 700 One more thought - the rifle I got has two eyelets on front of the gun as shown on the VS SF II on Rem's site BUT my rifle is def 300 RUM which apparently is not available on that model - only the Sendero. Now I'm more confused.

    Help me identify this Rem 700

    Re: Help me identify this Rem 700 It has a small palm swell but it would appear by the pictures on the Rem site that both the Sendero and the VS SFII have that. Would the barrel be marked as Remington Short Action if it was an SA?

    Help me identify this Rem 700

    Hi all, Came into possession of a 700 in 300RUM. My question now is what model is the damn thing and how can I tell? It has the stainless fluted barrel and black w/ webbing stock. It appears from the remington site it is either the Sendero or the VS SF II. I want to determine if its a...

    What 300RUM to try first in my new R700?

    Re: What 300RUM to try first in my new R700? Valid point. Honest answer is I want to make 100% sure there is a difference between what I can buy in a box from Rem or Fed and a handload for this gun/caliber. No problem paying for it but I'm not a "salt first, taste later" kind of guy. I...

    What 300RUM to try first in my new R700?

    All, Just got my baby this past weekend (R700 VT SF II in 300RUM) and want to do some quick 100-150yd trials on optics. Would like to get some boxed ammo to try out before getting my hand load situation sorted and trying to decide between 150 or 180. Currently looking at Power Level II...

    New to LR/Precision. Just picked up my first

    All, Just introducing myself here. Long time AR and handgun guy but decided it was time to take the target a bit further out. Had my eye on the Rem 700s for a long time now and ended up picking up a Rem 700 VS SF II in 300RUM. No optics, rights, etc so I have a bit before I can start...
