[QUOTE="dogdinger, post: 885233, member: 9616"] [SIZE=4]I will chime in here with my 2 cents worth.... I agree with bigngreen's comments. I started out in this LRH stuff with a pure stock Remington 700 BDL that I bought used/cheap, thinking I would use it as a donor to build on, but after shooting it I decided I did not need anything more. Being a tinkerer, and liking gun work I pillar bedded and free floated the original stock, adjusted the original trigger, tuned a load with 168gr SMK"S and this gun is still a 1/4" tackdriver with a cheap BSA scope, and it will handle anything you want to do out to 1k yards. Remingtons, especially the older ones, were known for their accuracy right out of the box with very little work.
