    Will any 40 mm scope fit on my rifle that has a 40mm scope mounted now?

    I have a remington 700 with a nice 3 -9 x40 hunting scope. I would like to replace it with something with a little more power. I have found a few scopes that were something like 9 - 15 x 40 and was wondering if it would fit my mount? Of course, my mount is 1 inch tube so I need a 1" tube, but...

Send your bolt out to get turned, threaded and installed (75$) plus knob it self (75-100$)"...or get a KRG bolt lift knob (36$ shipped). I just got...

    Timmney, RifBasix, Jewell, Shilen for 700 Remme

    Lots of after market triggers with prices from 100 or so to near 300. How did you guys choose and why did you choose what you did. I looked at Rifle basix and if its really 2 1/3 ponds with no creep it sure seems hard to beat? Price alone does not dictate but it certainly is a factor for me.

    Gunsmithing Is this normal for a Remington 700 S/A?

    About 8 months ago, I bought a Remington 700 SPS-V in .308. When loading the rifle I noticed that when actually sliding the bolt forward to load rounds from the magazine, it is VERY rough. Looking at one of LL's videos, his action is smooth as butter. This is nothing like mine. Is this...
