    My 5R Milspec and Fed Gold Match Lot No's

    Re: My 5R Milspec and Fed Gold Match Lot No's A follow up to my post, I just removed the bullets from the cases of both Lot #'s (503 & 610). I weighted the charge in each, did it to 3 rounds from each lot. The most accurate lot (503) had 42.8 gn. of powder + or - .1 tenth of a gn. and the...

    My 5R Milspec and Fed Gold Match Lot No's

    I finally figured out why my 5r wouldn't shoot 1/4 moa anymore. It's the lot number of ammo makes alot of difference. With the right lot no. of FGMM ammo it will shoot <1/4 moa. Couldn't get any better then 1 to 1 1/4 moa with a new lot no I ordered # X610 then got frustrated and opened a older...

    Anyone not like the AICS chassis? Why?

    Re: Anyone not like the AICS chassis? Why? Hey rundm, Thanks for the tip. I like everything about my new 1.5 AICS except for the check riser, and was disappointed my Eagle check pad/pouch would not adapt because it blocked the Bolt from being removed. So after reading your post I just...

    Remington 700 5r question

    Re: Remington 700 5r question I'm planing on doing the same on my 5r, I'm going with the Surefire Muzzle Break / Adapter. Just havn't decided on who to thread the barrel yet. Everything I've read about it, shouldn't affect the accuracy.

    Remington model 700 SS 5r milspec

    Re: Remington model 700 SS 5r milspec You must have a good one, I've been reading all 5r posts since I bought mine 6 months ago. Have not read about any 5r shooting that well and the review on www.snipercentral.com wasn't near that close. I would like to see pic's of the targets.

    Remington model 700 SS 5r milspec

    Re: Remington model 700 SS 5r milspec I bought my 5r for the same reasons everybody above did, I wanted a good platform to learn LR shooting. I am a little disappointed in the accuracy but after reading the above posts sounds like it's normal. The shooting is probably me as I'm new at this LR...

    Re: California Range for new shooter Iron Sights in Oceanside would be my suggestion too. She can get training, try diff types of handguns and then buy whatever fits her best.

    Rifle reccommendations?

    Re: Rifle reccommendations? www.snipercentral.com/milspec5r.phtml will tell you all about the 700 5R. I'm still learning mine, seems to only shoot Federal Gold Match 168gr and 175gr well. All the other ammo's I've tried will not group. Good Luck

    Rem 700 5R and XM118 LR Ammo?

    Re: Rem 700 5R and XM118 LR Ammo? Thanks for the info, I'll order some on my next order from Palmetto. If it does'nt shoot well in my Rem 700 5R it'll give me a reason to get that LWRC REPER I've been looking at.

    Rem 700 5R and XM118 LR Ammo?

    Anybody have a range report with the M118 ammo in a 5R Milspec? My understanding is they were made for each other from the Sniper Central Equip review. Like to get some feed back before I order a 500rd box, thanks!!

    First day at the range with my new 5R

    Re: First day at the range with my new 5R Hey thanks for the info. Not trying to rob your thread Sunny but chimed in to just learn as much as possible. Looks like I might have to start reloading pretty soon. Wanted to try all the loads first to see what works best. Printed some targets off of...

    First day at the range with my new 5R

    Re: First day at the range with my new 5R It must be a 5R day, shoot my 5R today also. Did barrel break-in last week with some 150gr American Eagle, it shot horrible. Nothing would group at all. Went today with some 168gr and 175gr American Eagle and it shot much better. I thought the 168gr...
