Remington 700 Long Range M40 stock

[Jkuhn]

I just pick up one of these chambered in the 300 ultra mag, with a vortex viper pst scope and was pretty impressed with the rifle. I only weigh 130 ibs and recoil is very manageable. I purchased two boxes of nosler trophy grade ammo with 180 grain accubonds to break in the barrel and see what it would do for groups. With a four shot group, the first shot to foul up the barrel the following three shots were almost a single bullets hole. Overall I'd say it's a nice rifle especially for the price!

Just picked me up one in stainless (2nd time 300RUM). Already have the brass and dies. The quality of this Remmy is better than the ones I had in the past! I really like this M40 stock. Now to decide what optic and if I should take it to the Smithy to have the barrel threaded for a brake, before I start load development? Only the 200gr and up projectiles will be shot out this rifle.gun)

The Remington 700 Long Range chambered for the 300 Remington Ultra Magnum Cartridge is my favorite rifle for Reloading and Benchrest Target shooting.

There were very limited amounts shipped out before the recall--not too many people have had the chance to experiment with them, since the guns are just now starting to come back into the market

There was recall?

I didn't worry about the recall and the $hite non-adjustable X-Mark trigger. I ordered a Rifle Basix 3.5# before the first shot, which is a solid trigger.

I've had 2 - Remington 700's and never had any problems with the triggers

Oh, I was hoping to put my old factory barrel on and do a recall for that. The trigger recall wasn't helpful to me. The x mark pro was fine. Safe...and worked ok. I'm not one to do trigger jobs unless I'm having a hard time tighting up like a 1/8 moa spread or something. Truth is 1/4 moa spread is fine with me for hunting and most other applications. I don't waste that much time and money with every rifle I own to make it tuned to shoot a hole through a hole at 100y/m.
