Rem 504 .22lr?

[joelsa58]

I've got a couple of rem 700 .308, both shoot pretty good. However match ammo gets expensive.

I bought a trainer awhile back, rem 504. Got some $70 Barska scope not sure what rings(whatever the shop had).

I'm using bulk Fed 36gr hp. 5 shot groups at 100yd are consistantly measuring 1.5 moa.

Is there anything I can do to improve this, or is that as good as it gets?

I've heard CCI ammo is better. Also recently turned on to some sub-sonic 60gr. Havn't tried either yet.

Anyone have any experience with that to share?

Is it the 504T 0r the standard 504? The 504T's tend to be a bit more accurate than the standard rifles. If you can get some Wolf match Extra or SK Standard Plus ammo. That will help your groups too.

You need to try different ammo, it should do much better.Make sure the action is tight,NO WIND,steady position.

Sounds very good for bulk.
For plinking, plinking ammo.
For precision, precision ammo.
