The gun will be fine. You’ll be very happy with it. .308 Winchester is well known to be an all around great round out to 1,000 yards. I have never heard anyone complain about it’s inherent accuracy potential and the same can be said of the Remington 700. Make sure you put a quality scope on it and secure it with quality mounts/rings. I would recommend a hornady lock n load chamber gauge for finding your lands and a Redding competition seating die for seating your bullets off of them consistently. I’m currently working on a Remington 700 Sendero in 300 Winchester magnum which will be set up this way for next summer. fun fun fun.
what kind of distance do you get out of the tactical .308/7.62 set ups. The ones that look like AR clones? Are they good for longer range work also?
