[QUOTE="MontanaRifleman, post: 482400, member: 11717"] As I was reading through this thread I thought the same thing. How is it shooting now? Does it need accurizig? Fred, I got a used Sendero 300 Rum (the original model) a couple of years ago and it's a great shooter, .5 MOA out to 600 yds. Did nothing with it except tuned the trigger myself. Load work is important, but these rifles usually shoot anything well and some loads better than others. Last year I skim bedded it, but haven't shot it since. My advise is tune the trigger so it breaks the way you like it and get it skim bedded. Not sure about the new Rem triggers, but the old ones were pretty good when tuned well. If you want to go all out, get a Jewel or Timney. If you have a problem with the recoil, then get a good brake on it, otherwise why bother? It will make it really loud and if you touch it off in the field without ear protection, it will be painful. Other than that you shouln't really need anything done until the barrel burns out. At that time, get the action trued and put on a good match grade barrrel and consider a bigger recoil lug. Good shooting, -Mark [/QUOTE]
