[QUOTE="CatShooter, post: 149079, member: 7"] Against what - Elk or Prairie Dogs. Prairie Dogs... about 300 yds! Elk - 700 or 800, for a predictable hit. Don't take this the wrong way, but while you were throwing all that money at it, you should have gotten a new tube. All that lug lappin', Shilen triggers, and pillar bedding on a factory barrel (they cost Rem about $30-$50 each), is like dressing up a toad for the prom. Sometimes a Remington barrel can be terrific, but 3 "inches" at 300yds ain't so good. You got to have a better barrel if you want to reach out and touch something at really long range. <<edited>> [/QUOTE]
