[QUOTE="sobercajun, post: 1343957, member: 86273"] I trued my factory Remington 700 action. Posted action upgrade recommendation questions on this forum when I was barreling & most replies I got advised to just true & blueprint factory 700 action. So that's what I did. Worked out really well. Worked up a load with Berger 168VLD seated -.010 in front of 69.5grs of H1000. Clocking on average of 2988fps. Didn't take much load development to find a good node. Could probably get a little more heat but this shoots great & I don't get many shots over 300yds here in South LA. As I said, the Proof barrel is a little pricey ~$800 but it looks as good as it shoots. I'm single & don't have to explain WHY. [/QUOTE]
