    Why no love for the Remington 700 Long Range?

    My first center fire rifle was a Remington 700 BDL in .243. It was purchased in 1968 and I still have it. It shoots pretty good with the ammo it likes and has not had any modifications at all.

    Rifle Scopes Scope Recommendations for 300 WM Rifle

    I agree that the NF F1 with appropriate mil/moa dot recticle is an excellent choice. How would the NF F1 scope recticle quality compare with a simlar recticle in the Lupy Mk-6 3-18 scope. The lupy scope does look a little lighter but the important thing to me is the recticle and glass quality. Al
