randy at r&d precision put it all together. and he did a great job. the stock is a bit thick for a remington setup he made it work. im glad i sent it to him. i would not of even got it close to as nice as he did.

Re: my new toy, r&d precision 308. thank you !!!

well not a bad start. i used 308 loads from my rem 5r to start with. there 175 pulled m118's with heavy pull marks. thats ten rounds in there. dont know how much better I can do, but the rifle is fantastic.

I'm sure the rifle will shoot.

Now all we have to do is get the nut behind the trigger to shoot it well.

Looks nice! I'm sure it will shoot very well.

Next we just need to drag you out to a few matches!
 
Re: my new toy, r&d precision 308. thank you !!!

thats now the plan. try to get to them and see how it does. better be better than the old 5r.
 
Re: my new toy, r&d precision 308. thank you !!!

Well, you are now, officially, out of excuses...

That's the upside of a cheap gun -- If you don't shoot well, you can always blam the $%$% cheap gun...
 
Re: my new toy, r&d precision 308. thank you !!!

That is a great looking rig. I love it, especially the stock and the Defiance/R&D action.

I've never been behind one, but I've always loved the look of the McHale. How is the sight picture/cheek weld with the stock?
 
Re: my new toy, r&d precision 308. thank you !!!

jabels.....
the sight picture is good it is only a little low but i still have not put any riser on it yet. i too loved the look of parker hale style sniper rifle so i ended up with this. im loving it more and more. i know i will build another with this stock when the time comes. thank you to all for the comments
 
Re: my new toy, r&d precision 308. thank you !!!
