I picked up a Remington 700ML today and I am more excited about the old scope that is on it.
Old as in USA Colorado made looks like a safe queen scope.
It is the wide field scope and very clear.
Still has a sticker on the top of the eyepiece that states Do Not remove eyepiese warranty will be voided.

I wonder what loads I should use for this gun.
209 primers in this one. Not on the trigger recall list either.

My Rem 700ML likes 100 gr pyrodex pellets and 250 gr Barnes Expander bullets, but I still use percussion caps.

I can’t remember what my 100 yd zero is, thinking it’s 3 or 3 1/2” high. Whatever it is, I can aim at the cap of a 20 oz pop bottle at 200 yds and hit the bottle.

My ML is blued so I catch myself taking one of my stainless ML’s most days.

I picked up a blued one too. What scope are you running on it George?
Jeff, sounds like you got a nice one. Those old Redfield’s were good glass. I’ve got an old pair of USA made bino ‘s and they are really clear

I’ve had a Simmons Whitetail Classic, 2X10X44 on it since I bought it.
