Finally after waiting seems like forever, I have my own long range rig! I tried to gather as much information as possible here on the hide before I just started buying random stuff. My goal was to get a rifle that I can just target shoot with, and work on my fundamentals, and then move into some local matches.
Here are the rifle specs:
Remington 700 SPS-V .308 ( I had the barrel cut to 20 inches, and a new recessed target crown put on by a local smith)
McMillan A-5
Timney 510 trigger
Vortex PST 6-24-50 FFP (with new EBR-2C) mounted on a Seekins rail and Rings
Atlas bipod with QD mount
PTG DBM

I had a chance to take her out on tuesday, and fire the first rounds through her. I was very happy with the gun, and felt like it shot pretty good. The ammo I was using was Federal 180 grain fusion ( which shot pretty well). Once I had it on paper I switched to 168 grain Winchester Match. Here are some targets Pics
