Been reading alot of stuff on here lately. New to longrange shooting besides hunting. Pretty much have decided what I want to do to my rifle whis is a Remington 700 aac-sd. Either a Bushnell or SS 10x mildot scope, ditch the Houge stock for at least a B&C,but just need advice on what would be a good pair of rings and anything else you fellas think I may need to have/ know. I also have access to a machine shop and will turn a brake. I have made one before.
 
Re: Any advice?

sup, tis a nice gun, although not much advice for ya, all the stocks i want for mine havent or arent coming out yet, ie. ai ax, racs, msr, or even the eberlestock, pfft. gotta change it though, doesnt really float on the hogue like its suppose to. as far as glass, really no opinion, long as it holds zero and least a 10x, they all work for me, the gun is awesome. i have a weaver gs and a bushnell elite, neither very grand but do the job nicely, although am saving up for a leupold eventually, although id call that more cosmetic than userability.

tis definetly a sub moa gun up and beyond 1000
 
Re: Any advice?

With that rifle in that stock, it's a great, inexpensive combo. I have a Savage in a B&C A2 with an SS10x42M. It's a fantastic rifle for the money. I don't have much experience with Remingtons, but my Savage with that setup is easily capable of 1/2 MOA. Not to say I am all of the time, but my rifle is.

For inexpensive optic mounts, I'd recommend an EGW base with Burris XTRs. Or perhaps some Seekins or TPS rings.

Also, the Bushnell 10x is very good for the price. I prefer the SS, but the Bushnell is only $180.
 
Re: Any advice?

I forgot to mention I have a base, and I will shoot it with that stock but It will have to go fairly soon. The front end flexes pretty bad when I use the bi-pod and my hand just isn't comfortable holding it. Ive looked through both scopes and i prefer the SS, but know I will want to upgrade. Thats why I'm considering the Bushnell. I appreciate the advice!
 
Re: Any advice?

You will have a hard time doing better than the B&C for the money. They are good stocks. Not the best, but good. If you want to step up DBM systems, I suggest looking at a Manners. As for glass, if you are looking at Bushnell or SS, you won't go wrong. They are both good mid range options for optics. I have used both and never had any trouble out of them. I would recommend that whatever you get, make it easy on yourself and get matching turrets and reticle.
 
Re: Any advice?

You can skim bed the B&C or any other aluminum bedded stocks. They will be close to the shape of the 700 action but it will still have some play. I can post some skim bedding threads if you want. Mil/Mil is when you have the mildot reticle and mil adjustments (as in .1 or .5 mil adjustment) on the scope turrets. Its called a mil/mil scope.

Re: Any advice?

Go to the gunsmith section on this forum and there is a sticky post about bedding your rifle stock and its 11 pages of questions and answers! It will help! also i found some videos on you tube about bedding a rifle! hope i helped
 
Re: Any advice?

Cheek pad if you need to elevate your eye to the scope. If not they are not needed. Some have built in stock pack. If you got to have one stay away from the ones with the large pack because it will add length of pull due to you arm having to go around the pack. This can affect your trigger pull/input to the rifle during trigger pull. Sometime tacticool assesories get in your way.
 
Re: Any advice?

B&C stocks are a great upgrade from the factory Houge. Might look into replacing the factory trigger as well, or possibly a trigger job. I wasn't real fond of the Xmark mine came with & replaced it with an older 700 trigger that was tuned to a crisp 2 lbs.
 
Re: Any advice?

I need something to raise my cheek. When I look my line of sight is about level with the scope base. Ive got a great place to shoot and will also use it for coyote and maybe deer hunting.
Also, are the Millet trs-1 4-16x scopes any good? Or just stay with a fixed power? And once agasin, thanks for all the help!

Seriously man? You're gonna sit there, behind your computer screen, and run your dick sucker at the site founder (Lowlight)?

I can tell from the posts you've made that you're not exactly what I would refer to as being intelligent but...you've taken ignorance to another level entirely.

You sound dumber than a bag of dildos....... "Tis definitely a sub moa gun up and beyond 1000", does that mean that it shoots sub 10 inch groups at 1000? And just how far are you reaching out with that 20" barreled 308?

No your just obviously 100% full of shit and flat out lying about said "match" and now your trying to use teenage tactics to argue your way clear of it.

Your not even good at being a full of shit, google-fu using retard.

Unrecorded 1000yd world record shot in front of thousands of people with a $550 off the shelf next to bottom line short barreled remington .308 huh?
 
Re: Any advice?

I was born in Bridgeport, CT, can I be a redneck ? I suppose, it is Southern Connecticut after all.

A Remington 700 sps set a world record in front of a 2500 witness, I definitely missed that memo, and normally I get them all.

Wow, revelations tonight and the moon isn't even full.
 
Re: Any advice?

lol, not a world record, who said that, and bein the only civil one here, not really referring to you as a redneck, so no disrespect there, and if/when i find article again, believe i will post
 
Re: Any advice?

and i dunno, maybe, not sure about stock, but dont see it being stock, but know he had expensive glass, and would say it was all rifle, not shooter with the rig he had it set in, no skill there, im sure

A 3.5" group at 1200yds with a .308 would be a world record and as such, it would be very easily verified online.

The rifle and glass did it all, huh? Boy, you're dumber than a bag of hammers. It doesn't matter WHAT equipment you have, it's only as good as the shooter.

Re: Any advice?

if it was a 3.5" group at 1200....thats world record material, especially in front of how ever many people you claim. What match was this dipshit?

If/When you find the article, save us the meth head grammar please, but me thinks you are not going to find it. I wish people that were as dumb as you were at least not allowed to reproduce anytime in the future.
