    Accurately machined Remi 700 sps-v?

    bedded like a champ, really great guide that 8541 tactical. pure success, and surprising how much of a "gap" was really there. anyone want to sell me some optics now?!

    Accurately machined Remi 700 sps-v?

    Hahaha, well said! I completely understand. Thank you both for the input. My fears exactly. The anxiety alone would do me in at the range...ahh .004...hah Unfortunately I will only be mounting a Falcon 5.5-25x50 ffp for now. I can get em direct from falcon for $420 to my door...vs a Vortex...
