    Retro scopes for a vintage build... M40 clone boomstick

    All, I am trying to decide on the optics for my M40 clone. Its not going to be 100% exact reproduction since I am not starting with a vintage 6-digit Rem 700. I have the Silverhill stock and 16601-3 buttplate all setup. (LOTS of work getting that fitted) But now I am debating how to...

    Thinking about installing a muzzle brake on my Remington 700 in 7mm Remington Magnum. Supposed to help with recoil. Not really sure which one to use, but I do plan on having a gunsmith install it. Will have him thread the barrel and install it. Recoil is not a big issue, but I am trying to be a...

    Cleaning Question

    I'm all for a "if it's not broke, don't fix it" approach but... I'm new to the sport and firearms in general. I've been working on and just finished a Remington 700 in .308. So far I've run 560 rounds thru it without a cleaning. I'm keeping it oiled and the bolt runs great, I'll pull a...

    Questions regarding Remington 700

    I'm stuck between a Remington 700 AAC-SD .308 20'' or a Remington 700 Tactical 5R (22'' Fluted barrel, SS barrel, 5R, non-threaded, HS stock, coated barrel and action) The AAC-SD is ~$700 and the 5R Tactical is $1300+tax, does the 5R Tactical options justify $650 extra? The HS stock seems...

    Review my Remington 700

    Remington 700 SPS Varmint .308 I bought this Remington 700 earlier this year and its intended use was for target shooting. After reading the boards for awhile I decided the first thing to do was change the stock. The factory stock is cheap and hurts accuracy. I replaced it with a Bell and...

    iPhone video through my Televue scope

    Took a trip to the range and brought along my Televue 76 and turned my little travel telescope into a spotter, which worked out perfectly. Thought I'd share a quick video of a couple shots at 637 yards taken with an iPhone held against the eyepiece. Trace is easily seen...

    Remington 700 ejector stuck

    After about 10 rounds downrange today the ejector pin in my fairly new (less than 100 rounds down the pipe) Remington 700 bolt got stuck inside the bolt, flush with the bolt face.

    Gunsmithing Remington Bolt question.

    I've got a .223 action just sitting around. I'm going to put a 300wsm barrel on it. Now, about the bolt. Can it be turned to accommodate the larger case? Will I need a new extractor or a new bolt? Thanks.
