    Question about a better 700 trigger

    There are more than a few out there now. For a bullet proof target trigger for a 700, what would be a good choice?

    Remington 700P or Remington 700 SS 5R Milspec?

    After doing a lot of reading, I'm still confused as to which rifle I should get. I plan on shooting 168grain FGMM ammo. (I got a good deal on 1000 rounds) It seems that the 5R trumps the 700P with 175grain loads, but what about for 168grain loads?

    Considering trading in 700 for AR10... thoughts?

    I currently have a Remington 700 Police in .308... it's had a little work and is sitting on a loaded McMillan Baker Special... it's a great shooter, but I'm thinking about trading it/selling it in favor of an AR10 or LR308. I'm thinking that a 24" heavy barrel should get me out there for...

I emailed badger Ordinance and they replied that they did not make a mount that would fit my rifle, I was pretty sure of that already, considering they stated that their replica M40...
