With all due respect Shooter I would prefer something other than a Rem700. That is the only gun I have ever cut up and thrown in the lake. Absolutely hate the things.

Please. The first gun I bought was my 700 30.06. Still only needs a compass mounted on it to shoot groups to 300 yds and more. My 700 .308 tactical shoots better than I can hold it, even with surplus FMJ loads.

Now I don't claim to be a great shot. But I have out shot every braggart I ever came across. And usually with that 30.06. My favorite 165 gr handload shoots pretty tight for a sporter weight barrel.

I completely understand. Almost everybody loves their 700. It is the only gun that has ever had an AD on me. This was well before Rem would admit there was a problem.
