[QUOTE="MudRunner2005, post: 1047993, member: 12995"] Yes, it appears to be a Remington 700 PSS. They were made for many years and came with a 26" non-fluted heavy barrel in a solid black HS Precision stock, just like the rifle in your pictures. However, I'm pretty sure someone has painted yours or had it cerakoted, because they didn't come in green. :D Also, for strictly target shooting, it's hard to beat the Nosler 168 Custom Comps. You can buy a 1000 pack for around $250, or Berger 168 VLD's.

I use Lapua brass, Federal 210M primers, 44.0gr of Varget, and seat the bullets to 2.810" for my plinking rounds. I have some heavyweight performance rounds that shoot 1 ragged hole, and I use Berger 210 VLD's, 39.1gr of Varget, Federal 210M primer, Lapua brass, and pushed into the lands. They have to be single-fed, since they are too long for the magazine. [/QUOTE]
