    Rem 700 AAC-SD blues

    Have mine in a Bell & Carlson M40. Wouldn't shoot under 2" at 100. Tried everything. Did notice the recoil lug only made contact on the bottom edge. After 1,000 + rounds I got tired of fighting it. I put a Bartlein Sendaro 1-11 1/4 barrel on. It now shoots 1/4 moa at 100. I wanted to post pics...

    Posting help?

    Thanks. What's really strange is I tried again from my home computre and it posted. I then tried to edit the post and it disappeared from the thread. I'm not having problems in this thread though. Weard! Edit to see if it works and say this is posted from my phone.

    Posting help?

    Last night I tried three times from my phone to post in the Bolt-action Rifle forum. Twice when I clicked "SUBMIT" it took me to the main forum page. When I went back to the thread my post didn't show up. The third I tried a message appeared stating that my post would appear after being reviewed...

    Rem 700 AAC-SD blues

    Yours shot better than mine. 100 Yds. Tried SMK 168 & 175, SGK 165 & Hornady 150 RNFB. Shot over 1, 000 rounds playing with bullets, seating depths and powders. Never got any better. I replaced the barrel with a Bartlein 11 1/4 twist Sendaro. First three shots at 100 Yds. with...

    Can't reach SH via Firefox

    I'm posting this for two reason, 1) to ask the question and 2) to see if will post. I'm using Firefox. Last night I tried to post in Bolt-action rifles. I got a message saying my post needed to be reviewed by a moderator before posting. It still hasn't posted. Is this part of the patch problem...

    Anyone ever have this happen with a remington 700?

    I just mounted a rail and scope on my new 700 SPS Tactical AAC-SD. I found that when I screwed the rail down the front was level but the rear was low and canted to the right. I bedded the rear with JB Weld and it's now square.

    Rifle Scopes How do YOU level your optic?

    Sit small level on the rail, clamp other level on barrel. Match bubble in level clamped to barrel with bubble on rail. Mount rings and scope, place small level on scope cap match bubble on scope to bubble clamped to barrel. Torque scope in rings. LEVEL!

    Rifle Scopes Choose a Scope

    Re: Choose a Scope I got the Nightforce. Then I decided I needed a new custom 308 barreled action to put it on. The 06 is back in the Boyds thumb-hole stock.

    Rifle Scopes Choose a Scope

    Re: Choose a Scope Thanks Dirt. I'm going to keep my eye out for a beater rifle just for the action. I'll send it off and have it worked and re-barreled. I'll then put this action back in the original stock. Dreams for the future. James, mentioned mirage, I never notice any in the Osprey...

    Rifle Scopes Choose a Scope

    Re: Choose a Scope For those interested. I let the wife look through the NF. She's used to the Osprey on her .223. I almost had to pry the rifle away from her. She was looking for squirrels in a tree 135 yards out. I wonder if she could have made a head shot.

    Rifle Scopes Choose a Scope

    I've done quite a bit of reading here but this is my first time posting. So please bear with my ignorance. I'd like to know if you had a once in a lifetime chance (which I do) to buy a quality scope which one you would choose based on what I'm about to tell you. This will help me in my...
