My Remington 700 308 build is coming along and Im coming down to my last couple "needs". I went to the range today to sight in some ammo I recent bought (Southwest Ammunition Run-n-Gun 175 SMK).
The ammo seems to do well as I was shooting sub MOA when I did my part. But the problem is Im not doing my part. The heavy trigger has me yanking the shot right at the end. Im not yanking it to bad but I can definitely feel it and see it downrange.
I also noticed that when I had my Viper PST 6-24 on the higher powers I was getting some shadowing along the edges. Ive never noticed this because I normally shoot at 12x but I moved up to 24x to try grouping at 200 yards. I found that the scope is just a little to high. Im eventually going to replace my rings but for now I think Im going to get a cheek rest.
I was shooting off a bipod and rear bag (which needs to be replaced as well). Here are the groups I shot today:
Here is the rifle as it sits now:
