I put one of Scott's new MP-MODSS stocks on my 700sps and had a chance to try it out (0-1000yds). Caveat- it was my first time out past 100yds (stupid state's limits, so I went out of state). Results- Solid hitting out to 800yds.... but my ammo ran out of steam after that. I guess I need to go back out with some hotter ammo (darn, more shooting required). A lot of other shooters wanted to lay behind it and I think Scott as a few more orders coming soon.

Scott did a great job on the stock, it fit like a glove and the milspec green paint job got a lot of attention. I got the folder, which allowed me to keep the cheekpiece up when cleaning- just buy it that way and stop guessing if it's worth $40. He was very supportive of my questions and the stock is rock solid. Thanks Scott!

The only suggestion I would have for other shooters is have someone knowledgable (and maybe whom owns one) fit you on the cheekpiece. I thought I was good, but it turned out I needed it lowered and at an angle for a perfect fit. That's a bit tricky to do alone with allen's wrenches.

CT forbids people to shoot past 100 yards?

They don't "forbid" us, they just make it really difficult to do it. There aren't ranges available out past 100yds and the one that was has been shut down because neighbors were claiming rounds were jumping the berms. No matter how much they fixed the range they were still being sued. You get the picture.

Thats a great review and sounds all cool...but a pic would go along well with it...
 
Re: R 700 Rebuilt on Mcree Gen. 5+ MP-MOD stock Review

Yes, please don't tease us with a report and no pics. It's like going out with a hot chick and no first base.

Duly noted. I'll see if I can post a few tonight.
 
Re: R 700 Rebuilt on Mcree Gen. 5+ MP-MOD stock Review

There are ranges beyond 100 yds. in CT...

If you aren't shooting 175s beyond 600 yards, you don't need "hotter" ammo, you need heavier bullets.
