    That's what scopes do. Damn iron-sights shooters.

    Next time you go out, let me know, you should still have my number I think. I would like to get my rifle out past the 200 I have access to and learn how to actually use the scope, lol...

    Good shooting. I wish I could get out more and shoot longer ranges

    Reset the trigger and adjusted the weight on my Rem 700 last night. Dear god why didn't I do that sooner. It's at about 3.5 lbs now and I got it lighter, but it feels better to me at this weight. I am so glad I picked this rifle up before they went to that aweful Accu-x or whatever they call that new POS design.

    I should probably take this to a friend of mine in Pueblo and have him float the barrel a little more and bed the stock.

    Fri, would you be up to doing some trigger work on my LR setup sometime?... Stock trigger but I've heard they can be adjusted pretty well. I've seen the youtbe vids on how to do it, would just be "scared" not to have an "experienced" eye checking things out.

    Is it a Rem 700 older style trigger? If so, we can set something up, but I wouldn't be scared at all if I were you. You are more than capable. There is a bunch of info on the net about how to do it, and short of pulling the screws all the way out, you can't really screw it up permanently.

    This is about all you need.

    No Sir it's the Howa 1500, .308.

    I tore it apart once and found a video on youtube that was well done. I just didn't trust myself to screw something up with all the disclaimers of "too loose and it won't fire, yada, yada, yada"
