[QUOTE="Don Titus, post: 1304869, member: 61851"] Zerk, I bought a 1992 700 in 300 WM 3 years ago at an auction for $550. It had been bedded, but other than that it was "stock". I re-scoped it with a Nikon Prostaff4x12, had a Timney installed @ 3lbs., installed a custom muzzle brake (it came with a factory brake), and it will shoot sub MOA's without a struggle. Best group to date is .150" with hand loads...best loads for this rifle has been with 73 gr. H4831sc and either 200gr. ELD-X or 73.5gr. RL 22 behind 190 ABLR's. I have found that setting her up so the load is only .005" off the lands, works best. Good luck, Don [/QUOTE]
