Mine really likes 168 gr FGMM. I've had a few sub-MOA groups shooting that. I'm still learning how to shoot more precise. I am coming from hunting, shooting clays and action shooting. A lot of folks can shoot sub-MOA with a good rifle but it takes skill to do it consistently. Sent from my...

Cool looking rig. You should have some fun shooting that one. Sent from my XT1080 using Tapatalk

Enjoyed the videos, thanks for posting. Really nice range! Sent from my XT1080 using Tapatalk

Here's mine with the stock pack on it: I don't use the pack to get that much elevation out of the comb, but I did raise it some to get a better cheek weld. All I can say is try them out with your ring bottoms attached to the rail and then attach the tops lightly so you can move the scope...

I think most folks like the scope to be as close to the barrel as possible. It really comes down to your comfort. If you can get a comfortable cheek weld with your rings, you should be good. Even with the low rings on mine I have a Triad stock pack on mine when I shoot. It's not on it in the...

I have a Vortex PST 6-24x50 and I'm using the low Weaver Tactical rings. My objective bell sits about a quarter inch above the barrel. I have a 20 MOA EGW base. I did not have to bed my scope base, it fit flush with my receiver. Sent from my XT1080 using Tapatalk

I have the same rifle from a few years back and am just getting around to doing my build. I did pick up the Wheeler scope mounting kit. The FAT wrench in the kit is good to have for torquing in inch pounds. I googled torque specs for precision rifles to use as a guide for rings, base, and...

Dang Willys, that is one fine looking rifle. How did it end up on the river? Sent from my XT1080 using Tapatalk

There are many people on this site much more qualified to give you an informed opinion on your questions. I just wanted to salute you for putting the effort into getting this young marine a rifle. Thank you for doing this and give him a BIG THANKS for his service to our country.

I say somewhat practical because I usually hunt with a sporter or a shorter, lighter lever rifle. If I'm hunting from built stand, though, I'd take that one out. Sent from my XT1080 using Tapatalk

Really nice job on this rifle! It's a cool project I can appreciate. I've thought about doing something like this before and it's cool to see it coming together. I like the way you've done it. It's not too perfect to not enjoy shooting and would be a somewhat practical hunting rifle. I'd...

The Crusader is one badass rifle. My dream rifle would be one of their mil-type rifles, especially the M40A3 or A5, but that's just me. Oh yes, some day she will be mine and I'll name her...Gloria or maybe Doris... Sent from my XT1080 using Tapatalk

I got one of the Dick's rifles a couple of years back for around $375 after the rebate on a black Friday sale. I'm in the process of upgrading now. Out of the box with the cheap stock it shot around 1 moa or close. It's been a blast! I was already reloading pistol and this has been my first...

I'm enjoying the discussion going on here. That's what is really cool about this forum, so many smart folks that can put these skills into understandable language. Thanks guys!!! Sent from my SCH-I535 using Tapatalk

Very nice group, Fuerte! Jkling, I have the same rifle and have only shot factory ammo to this point. My 700 loves FGMM (168gr) very well. Sub MOA right out of the box with the factory stock. I have been following the FGMM thread in this section closely. If you can score some IMR4064 you...

So, I've been mostly an action shooter the last few years. I've participated in IDPA and CAS, yep CAS, what can I say, I dig the western-style historical firearms! Anyway, I suffered an injury a few months back, a ruptured quadriceps tendon in my right leg. I had to wait considerably long to...
