[QUOTE="Sargesniper, post: 1128990, member: 61726"] Finally got the LR Rem. To the range. First got it on paper at 100 and then went to 400. With new virgin cases and a throw together load with 208 gr. A-Max. it shot into a 6" group. Not real impressive but a good start. got home and cleaned it and it seems that the bore prep. I did paid off. No copper at all. That was a shock as i did no break in at all. I discovered the right lug was making hard contact with little on the left one. I lapped the right lug until I was getting good contact on both. I will have to shoot it again to see if that was the cause. Have not done any bedding yet so that may help also. Might be a week or more before I get out again. I feel like it will be shooting well on the next trip. Just have to find the load that it likes. I feel like I have gotten another good one from Remington. Lucky? Maybe, or is it that Remington is still making good rifles? We will see! [/QUOTE]
