Back into the game

[jamesbern]

I had a Remington 700 a while ago, but sold the package and went without, stupidly I might add.

I'm grabbing another tonight in trade for an AR I built, but need to grab a scope, rings, and base for it.

Remington 700 sps 20" heavy barrel, black, new never fired......
* Bell and Carlson stock
* Wyatt outdoors detachable magazine kit with three 5 round mags
* Timney adjustable trigger ~ 1.5-3 pounds
* bipod, either a harris or rock steady

First time owning a bolt gun with a mag kit. I read decent things on this kit. Current owner says it feeds and cycles ammo fine.

If I end up really keeping it, I hope to change the stock to a Mcmillian A4 as I really love the style and looks.

Besides scope, rings, base, and maybe a sling anything else I should grab for it? I need to find ammo to feed it which looks like fun at this point.

I have a 100yard range within 30 minutes and am a member of another range with 400 yards which would be the longest i've shot.

Looking forward to putting some rounds through it.

Thanks! Just placed an order to Liberty Optics for a Vortex PST 6-24x50 FFP Mrad and a Seekins 20MOA base.

I just got a Viper PST 1-4x24 for an AR and it looks good so figured i'd give another scope of theirs a try.

How do you like that B&C stock so far?

I just got the rifle tonight. It looks pretty good. I had the same stock on my other Remington from the factory. I like it. It's heavy though.
