Default Rem 700 ADL

A friend asked me to mount a scope and zero it for him. The rifle is a 700 ADL 30-06,the scope is a Bushnell Trophy 3-9 with Weaver mounts and rings. I went to the range this morning,with 165 gr. Core locks the rifle is shooting sub 1" groups at 100 yards. Also tried 165 gr. Federal Vital Shock Ballistic Tips, they shoot to the same point of impact but with 1 1/4" inch groups.Nice shootin piece. I'm not sure how old the rifle is, the saftey doesn't lock the bolt.

My Remington 700 (LSS Mtn. rifle) shoots just fine, and all with factory ammo.
BTW, squirrels use their sense of smell, not sight, to find nuts

Over the years i've bought, traded, and sold a lot of guns. Over those same years more 700 Rems. have shot really good for me out of the box than any other brand!!! AND, i mean by a wide margin!!

I see in other post guys are complaining about Rem. quality, and that's sad!!! They've been makeing the 700 basically the same way for a long long time, you'd think they could do it RIGHT in there sleep by now!!!

Glad your Rem. 700 shoots so well for you!!
