[QUOTE="Bigeclipse, post: 867518, member: 52437"] I just bought a remington 700 mountain SS, Literally 3 weeks ago. I have only tried two factory loads, no hand loads. I tried nosler partitions 165 grain which shot about a 1.25inch group and remington corelokts which shot between .5-.75 inch at 100 yards. The core lokts surprised me. Needless to say, that is still quite awesome considering no handloads, so maybe you and your friend both got duds lol. Most people on here who shoot factory set-ups shoot a remington sendero or xcr, but yes...those are more of the high end remington's/ I would stay away from the remington 783/770 and probably the bottom of the line 700 which I think is a SPS. I heard those synthetic stocks are flimsy and will more than likely need to be replaced or at minimum bedded. Did you guys try multiple brands ammo or handloads? So many people grab a rifle, 1 load and assume it should shoot well lol, also may want to try and bed the action [/QUOTE]
