The Remington 700's I've had shoot great.  The triggers were heavy out of the box, but were fully adjustable.  Some guys that bought a lot of them say they got bad barrels, but you can't prove it by me...  :dunno:

Well some of us are just pretty dang persnickety on hitting exactly where we aim, not somewhere thereabouts.

So we buy a tikka

The gun might help but sure doesn't make someone a good shot.  Right person behind the trigger can make dern near anyone rifle a real shooter.

Mine shot pretty darn good stock.  The only thing I didn't like was the stiff trigger.  Never missed any animal I was shooting at.  I did have some work done on it to make it more of a long ranger shooter 500+ and it is a fine shooting rifle now.

Here's a 300 yard group from a bone stock Remington 700 ADL, purchased from Bi-Mart on a 319.00 close out sale.

Pilot all jacked up on RedBull, frosted with a POS Leupold to boot. :tup: First Mulie it killed was at 302 yards, the second at 509 yards. Just goes to show, I like to send them to the smith but it's not a must. 8)

Got to LOVE those Accubonds! :tup:

I can't stand the chambering but a deals a deal. :chuckle:
