    What would you do with my Bell & Carlson stock

    I have a Bell & Carlson Medalist stock. I bought it about a year ago with the intent of buying a Rem 700 AAC and just dropping it in and putting a Weaver 3-15 on it. Never got around to doing it and now I really want to finish it. I am not liking the AAC idea anymore and was wondering what...

    Muzzle Break for Rem 700 AAC

    Does anyone know of a muzzle break other than the ones made by AAC that will match the profile of the Rem 700 AAC's barrel? I've heard that the O.D. of the barrel is 0.890" but nothing comfirmed. The other question is does it matter if the thread diameter matches (5/8") but the thread count of...

    some pics of my sps tactical aac-sd

    Re: some pics of my sps tactical aac-sd Thats an awesome rifle. Do you happen to know how high your 20 moa base lifts the front ring up? I am buying the the exact same rifle and plan on using a 50mm objective lens scope with a 20 moa base. I dont know if the base I want to use is the same...

    Android Shooter App

    Yes, I know there is a huge thread about this already so before anyone post "go read it," I have. Its a lot of "You should add this" or "change that." What I would like to know is how accurate it is, specifically the density altitude feature. I cant find any reviews about it online. What I am...

    What is best to start with?

    Re: What is best to start with? Well, those last three post were worth less than a pile of shit. I bet you feel stupid knowing it shoots 1/2 MOA groups out to 400 yards (don't have room to go any further where I last shot it). You can have your Savage, I will take the tiny ragged hole at the...

    What is best to start with?

    Re: What is best to start with? Its a Remington 770. Its works well, but likes to heat up quickly due to the barrel contour. I am very aware of the 7mm mags long range abilities. I would just rather have its full power in a much better platform. I think my second rig that I buy will be a DTA...

    Range Report Introducing "Shooter", ballistics for Android!

    Re: Introducing "Shooter", ballistics for Android! I have just recently downloaded the Shooter app and I love it. Im just getting into long range shooting and Im still getting my gear together. My question is if this thing is as good as it seems and what I have read about, do I need a top of...

    What is best to start with?

    Re: What is best to start with? I was wondering what everyone thought of the Rem 700 SPS Stainless. What I can find on remingtons website is that its a 24" 1 in 10 twist barrel. Can someone confirm that? Almost every barrel makes of 20" is a 1 in 12, but if this is a 1 in 10 I would like it...

    What is best to start with?

    Re: What is best to start with? Ive got another question. I know the 700 AAC works with AAC's brakes. What I would like to know is if I use a JP Enterprises model, will it fit flush with the barrel. Does anyone know the diameter of the 700 AAC's barrel? Also, I really like the Sure Fire...

    Is Savage killing the Custom Rifle market?

    Re: Is Savage killing the Custom Rifle market? The truth is most custom rifles look like the ones in the movies and people must have it. The one thing I have noticed is that customs seem to stay be most consistent across the board with many types of ammo. However, what does it matter if you...

    What is best to start with?

    Re: What is best to start with? I really like the 5R. Does it have a 24" barrel and what twist rate is the barrel? I like the fact that the 700 AAC has a threaded barrel so I could use a muzzle break and maybe one day a suppressor, but its not a big deal if I dont have one. The one thing I...

    What is best to start with?

    Re: What is best to start with? Thanks again for all the input. If I buy a stock with an aluminum bedding block, is there any other steps I need to take to "bed" it further? Also, how much recoil does a the 6.5-.284 round have? I am not shy about recoil (my hunting rifles are a 3 inch magnum...

    What is best to start with?

    Re: What is best to start with? If it isnt in the catalog, how to you purchase a Remington 5R? I do really like the fact that there is so much available for Remington 700 rifles, so I would like to stay with them. I was thinking of starting with a .308 and maybe rebarrel it later if needed. I...

    Re: What is best to start with? Where can you find the info for the rebate and do you have to order it from somewhere special? I only ask because my local wally world has it in there special order catalog.

    What is best to start with?

    Re: What is best to start with? Couple more questions. First, can someone post a link for the Remington 5R? I think I have found it, but want to make sure I am looking at the right rifle. The one I saw has a 26" 1 in 12 twist barrel and is stainless. Second, what is the benefit of an atlas...

    What is best to start with?

    Re: What is best to start with? You guys are awesome and very fast. This has got to be the greatest forum ever. I will say I am partial to the .308 and I was looking at the 700 AAC. I dont know why I am so attached to it other than its a M40ish rifle in a classic sniper cartridge. I do like...

    What is best to start with?

    I am looking at buying a rifle for long range shooting. I probably wont ever go beyond 1000 yards once a month and out to 500-600 yards more often. I plan on handloading my own ammo. I dont want to spend more than $1200 for the rifle just because for my uses I am not sure I need $3000+ GAP rifle...

    my remington 700 sps tactical aac-sd and mini 14

    Re: my remington 700 sps tactical aac-sd and mini 14 Thanks. I am planning on using a scope with a 50mm objective lens. I want to use rings that are as low as I can get, but I also want to use at least a 20 MOA angled base. Does anyone know if a set of low rings (Weaver) and the angled base...

    my remington 700 sps tactical aac-sd and mini 14

    Re: my remington 700 sps tactical aac-sd and mini 14 can I ask a stupid question? I am actually in the process of acquiring a rifle just like yours, and I was wondering what kind of bipod that is and what size it is. Oh wait, crap. It pays to read first. I just saw what it is. What scope...

    Rifle Scopes 10 or 20 MOA base?

    Re: 10 or 20 MOA base? It is the Weaver Tactical 3-15x50mm. I will be putting it on a .308. I was planning on sighting it in at 300 once I get to shoot at 1000 and just hold low using the correct mil dot point. Will I still have enough elevation to work with at 100?
