[QUOTE="Johnboy, post: 540971, member: 20409"] now that the name Schneider has been said it does make since to me about the barrel maker.my good friend did a full research on the rifel when we found out about it.so this is where my info comes form. said that we the US of A paid the barrel maker alot of our money to test just what it would take to shoot a 168/175gn bullet the best.I really think it was the 168gn bullet.but we shooters who own one find that they shoot a 175gn just as good if not better.along with many other bullets and weights.thats why it has a twist of 1:11.250,its what he came up with for that bullet. we all know how long the throats are in all Remington rifels.but those who own or did own a 5R know how well they do shoot a loaded round at SAMMI specs. again as said before they just shoot right out of the box.for me mine has not yet seen a factory load.loaded for it for its first and will for its last. again I cannot realy say why we are able to own a rifel such as the 5R Milspec.maybe its just as I said before.would think if the barrel wouldn't pass for a M24 that the barrel maker wouldn't just melt it and start over.to much time in makeing it to waste.I would even do the same.I just wouldn't say OK its no good for the US ARMY so trash it.no I would say put it on an action and sale it to those who want it.its money in his pocket. for me its all about being able to afford a rifel that shoots like a 5R does.when I can afford a custom I will get one.but haveing the choice of an everyday rifel or a 5R yeap I'll buy one any day.they even make a great hunting rifel.so I have both wolrds in one.:D [/QUOTE]
