    Rings/Bases for Rem 700 SPS w/ Varmint Barrel

    Re: Rings/Bases for Rem 700 SPS w/ Varmint Barrel I think I'll go with the Hi rings just in case. For sure I'll have some caps on there eventually, and I don't want to chance a few thousandths when I can get the medium-high (.92") rings off the bat.

    Rings/Bases for Rem 700 SPS w/ Varmint Barrel

    Ok guys. Been doing some research and I'm about to buy a Rem. 700 SPS Long Range in 7mm Rem mag or 300 Win Mag (haven't yet decided on the caliber). This model has a 26" varmint contour barrel. I am also about to buy a Vortex Viper PST 6-24X50 FFP scope w/ 30mm tube. That said, I was reading...

    Bell&Carlson stock on Remington 700 SPS

    Re: Bell&Carlson stock on Remington 700 SPS What caliber is your gun, and if that is a Rem 700, what gun did the barreled action come from (unless you bought the action separately...)?

    Bell&Carlson stock on Remington 700 SPS

    Re: Bell&Carlson stock on Remington 700 SPS By the way, does anyone who has used one of these have any comment on how well the adjustments work/fit? I'm 6'1" and always have felt like I've needed a higher cheek piece and a bit longer LOP to be comfortable. That is the main reason I'm...

    Bell&Carlson stock on Remington 700 SPS

    Re: Bell&Carlson stock on Remington 700 SPS Awesome, thanks everyone! I've removed stocks before just using the two bolts, but I always but the same one back on, so I never knew if swapping one out would be as easy. Going shopping for the SPS tomorrow!!!

    Bell&Carlson stock on Remington 700 SPS

    Re: Bell&Carlson stock on Remington 700 SPS But just to be clear, there shouldn't be an issue with a direct swap? I won't have any issues with accuracy by doing this without bedding?

    Bell&Carlson stock on Remington 700 SPS

    Hello everyone, I'm thinking about picking up a Remington 700 SPS Long Range in 7mm Rem Mag and changing the stock. I really like the adjustable B&C #2098, which their website says will fit the SPS with the heavy barreled long action. My question is, is installing a new stock as simple as...

    New to LR, need advice on a bolt gun

    Re: New to LR, need advice on a bolt gun Thanks, Fernandez. I won't go so far as to say that shooting at 1000 yds is easy... Most of my "longer range" shooting has been at the local range between 300-500 yards. I have a Savage 10 right now in 7mmWSMm, and it is a tack driver--I paid about...

    New to LR, need advice on a bolt gun

    Re: New to LR, need advice on a bolt gun I LIKE that rifle (the TRG22)! They are quite pricey though. I'll stay on the lookout for a used one, although I'm not sure why anyone would ever sell it!!

    New to LR, need advice on a bolt gun

    Re: New to LR, need advice on a bolt gun I told you I was new to long range shooting! Thanks for clearing that up for me. I'll go do some more research. Now I'm going to focus on that rifle and caliber, which will make it easier to nail things down.

    New to LR, need advice on a bolt gun

    Re: New to LR, need advice on a bolt gun Thanks for the info. I'm not new to shooting, and have experience using mil-dots for ranging and holdover, but I am going to take a look at the scope you mentioned for comparison. Also, maybe I'm missing something, but I'm not sure what the R700 "5R"...

    New to LR, need advice on a bolt gun

    Re: New to LR, need advice on a bolt gun Thanks for all of the helpful responses, guys. More questions: I'm looking at remington's website, but I don't see the 700P with a Hogue or HS Precision stock. I did find the M700 Target Tactical, which has a Bell & Carlson stock--are those any...
