[QUOTE="coastbuck, post: 1150899, member: 89750"] I have the rem 700 long range in 300 win mag. Only modification is a jewell trigger set at 2 lbs. Gun has been a constant 1/2 moa to 3/4 shooter with factory ammo. Little bit better with handloads. Currently working up loads with the 210 bergers. Taking longer than I like to get the load finalized but that's because of my job and lack of time. Recoil isn't bad at all, got no problem shooting a couple boxes of ammo a session without getting sore or woreout. My cousin has the same gun but in 7 rem mag. His gun was very picky. Would only shoot 1 or 2 different brands of factory ammo good and hated the rest compared to mine that would shoot just about anything. With handloads we knock it down to a 1/2 moa gun. Have only tested one load might tighten up with a different bullet load combo. Just waiting for some good weather to go and confirm drops. That's about all the info I can offer on the rem 700 long range. But with any rifle there's a chance of getting a great shooter or a lemon. Only other thing I can offer is there is a lot of aftermarket support for the.rem 700 hope this helps you with your decision. [/QUOTE]
