[QUOTE="mprsox, post: 1360733, member: 90035"] I have a rem 700 lr in 30-06. I would suggest a few things first - you can bed the barrel yourself - cost me $5.00 of JB weld and a can of Pam spray on the barrel, took about 30 minutes total. watch videos from gunwerks at youtube. 2. get a good in-lb. torque wrench set from Wheeler in a scope mount kit for about $100.00. 3. I bought a Timney Calvin Elite 2 stage trigger for about $150.00 online - it is worth it's weight in gold! All of these are relatively cheap and easy upgrades. 4. If you want to do more, I bought a Vortex 6-24x FFP scope, just under $1,000.00. Many people say it is as good as a Nightforce for half the price. 5. I found federal TC1 180 gr factory ammo shoots great - the plastic ballistic tip bullets are awesome - try a few different brands.. 6. my gun shoots better dirty - I don't always clean it - (use a fouling shot first). Honestly, the rifle is probably better than me! oh, and practice, practice, practice... using real world condition - shooting sticks, not bench rest! [/QUOTE]
