Sorry guys,
Yes, I'm in the process of reading the FAQ section. Just put a Rem-700 SPS-AAC SD in .308Win on layaway. It was new for $709+Tax. Hope I din't get poked too bad. Went ahead and got the threaded barrel just because I might be interested in getting a can for it someday. I've already secured Dies and various goodies to reload for it on my Dillon 550b. Have a couple scopes I could pull off other rifles and use untill I can afford some good glass. Top contenders right now are a Leupold VX3 6.5-20 AO-EFR and a Weaver V-16, both have simple duplex rheticals. Still need a scope mount and rings, and some lead, maybe a bipod. I want to try keeping a log from the start with this rifle also. I've never done that before. Will probably be shooting from the bench at first, 100 out to 500yds, that's the longest range here locally. Will probably try it as-is for a while before making any decision about restocking or customizing. Would appreciate any advice/warnings about, starting loads, break-in procedures, equipment, what next, etc.....
Thanks,
