[QUOTE="jpfrog, post: 1378737, member: 32525"] I have a Long Range model in 300wm. If I had it to do all over again, I'd opt instead for the 5r Milspec. I prefer the HS stock over the B&C, and the finish on the action is better IMO. To me, it feels more smooth/slick than the finish on the 700LR. Plus, you get stainless (even though they now have a stainless LR version). For function, the 700LR is fine. Out of the box it shot 1.5-2" groups, which is not fine. With handloads and a Timney trigger, however, I've got it down to about .7moa currently and still a lot of tinkering left to get it under .5 which is where I'd prefer it be. [/QUOTE]
