[QUOTE="CLSlowTalk, post: 2576195, member: 27678"] So I have a bone stock Rem 700 7 Mag ADL and while it shoots ok for what it is (.75-1 MOA) I have recently been trying to increase my range... I bought a .308 5-R and I am currently working loads for it (the 1-1.24" twist is throwing me off of heavier bullets) ... I always like to have 2-3 good projects running to keep me interested while I wait on parts or range time. my question is for longer range 800-1400m which round would you suggest and why... My thought is to buy a good barrel have the receiver trued new trigger, stock, etc and try to get that to the .5 moa or better mark... I know I can buy a high quality gun for less money than i would put into this, but like i said i like projects... I've never actually owned a 300WM but have heard and read that they are barrel burners, but i'm also not a gun who shoots 3000 rounds a year through the same gun... Thanks in advance! [/QUOTE]
