[QUOTE="CA48, post: 426662, member: 21446"] I was going to do the same thing you are about to with a rem 700 sps 308 win. But before I stripped it down to the action I threw a B&C A5 on it and could not help but to load for a few for it. At 100 it will shoot under half MOA all day and very often in the 3s and sometimes the 2s. So I just left it at that. I'm sure it was the rare lucky one but it impressed me. Although it does not clean up well takes lots of passes and one noticeable thing is accuracy really degrades after the first three shots even though it has a heavier contoured barrel, but those first three are gold. Also the stock just has a bedding block in it so something that really improved accuracy was to get action screws so tight you think thier gona strip or snap. probably not to good for the action threads or the stock but made a huge difference in accuracy and if I was smart i would just have it skim bedded. The load is 43.8 gr of Varget 175 SMKs OAL 2.787 Lapua brass primer CCI-BR2 SD 3 ES 6 [/QUOTE]
