Hey guys! I've been working my way into LRH for about a year now and have done a bunch of reading my way through this site and some others...I've learned a ton here! My questions are as follows: Anything you guys think I should change in the rigs? Anything you would change equipment wise?
Rig 1 is a Rem 700 in 300 RUM sitting in a bell n carlson medalist A2. It's topped off with a nikon buckmasters 6-18 mildot SF in a leupold LR mount. I shoot it off a9-13" adjustable bipod with a rear bag. Load is 93 gr. retumbo pushing a 200AB at 3100 on average and getting .658 5 shot averages at 100. still has the stock pipe but I want to shoot it out before I rebarrel with probably a hart BBL. Factory trigger tuned up n breaking at about 2.5lbs
Rig 2 is a rem 700 LV in 204 ruger stainless fluted with a bushnell legend 5-15 mildot pretty much stock all the way around...( pillar bedded HS precision stock from the factory) Factory trigger reworked n breaking at about 1.5lbs.
I'm using a caldwell wind meter and bushnell 1000 arc when shooting beyond 100 with these or around 100 with the 22LR.....lots n lots of practice with the 22LR!gun)
I seem to be getting some horizontal stringing with the 300 load n plan on tinkering with it a bit more.....other than that any comments n suggestions would be appreciated!
