[QUOTE="FnSpr1akid, post: 102054, member: 5739"] Now for the Topic post on the FN SPR 1A 300wsm McMillan A3 stock is so far one of my favorite prone stocks the comb is high enough to suit me fine without needing the adjustable cheek piece.The trigger is fair out of the box with mine breaking at 4lbs nice and crisp. Fit and finish is quite nice with only thing being that annoying slight crookedness of the barrel in the channel (Still WELLLLLLL free floated) action is smooth with the claw extractor. Overall weight dressed with nikon 3.5-10 mildot is 15 1/2lbs so it makes shooting big loads feel like a meager .308win. Accuracy out of the box was disappointing and quite honestly made me wanna cry till I realized I had forgot to tighten my front scope ring then with 180gr SGK's (stupid me did not read the box at cabelas and grabbed what should have been SMKs but instead was a box of game kings.)Now with all the err little stuff out of the way with re-19 I am seeing 5 shots in the 1/4-1/2moa range with me jerking the trigger like a ninny.The rifle coming with a 20moa rail is nice the maker is unknown but quality is upscale. FN packages a test target with logbook so check that out if you run across one. The chamber is cut beautifullly on these rifles matched up to a long magazine on them (OAL of 3" compared to recommended COAL of 2.8") so I think I might try some big VLD's to compliment the 1:10 barrel which cleans nicely btw.
