    Nice setup, eflatminor. Is that a Boyds stock? How are you liking it?

    Boyds are great stocks but this is a standard Remington stock. I love it.

    I went with the mcmillon (one of the best tactical stock makers) and for a scoPe I went the a Leupold LRT tactical mil reticle 6.5 x 14 x 50 mm... Nice shooter, but heavy... I better get it with thefirst shot, cause i damn sure can't run after it...

    Some good lookin iron in this thread.

    I'm "old school".


    She's in full recoil in that pic and the empty is just above my left hand just out of the shadow.

    I try to be able to shoot a "minute of man" out 500yds. I used to do a click with a 1903, BUT my darned eyes have gone South,

    Here's one of my stepson shooting it.


    It knocked him around a bit and that was his first experience with a high powered rifle.

    The clip landed on his head and the look on his face was PRICELESS!!

    He didn't listen to me about what to do with his right thumb either. He got his nose bumped on the next clip. LOL

    I told him twice and said no more. After his nose got sore, he decided maybe I wasn't full of poo poo.

    Tha'ts funny! You sit like a young man shooting, and your stepson sits like an old man! .. Tell him if he keeps shooting leaning back like that he will never get a grouping. He has to sit forward like you to absorb the recoil..... Kids...

    This is what my Remington PSS .308 did the first and last time I took it out. It is a good gun and can shoot. Range was 100yds. Really don't call it "target shooting" per se due to the fact I was on my belly in the dirt off a 6-9 BR Harris bi pod. Load was some Sierra GK 168gr. open tip "pulls" I got from some 30-06 ammo. Keep bullets, dump powder, reload bullets. I shot once then tried to punch the same hole twice more. Worked well I think?...

    This'll shoot a "minute of man" out to 800 or so yds.
