Well....that says enough for me. I will definitely free float the barrel. If worse comes to worse, I can always go back and add a pressure point if needed.
Thanks

Firstshot,
I'm gonna' guess here that you're referring to that new Rem 700 Mtn LSS 7MM-08 that you just acquired. I'm pasting from your comments in another post regarding your
first trip to the range, and the accuracy you got:


Grn 100Yd Group
39.5..........1.013
40.0..........0.852
40.5..........1.212...(two almost touching - one flyer)
41.0..........0.610
41.5..........0.932
42.0..........1.226....(two touching - one flyer)
42.5..........1.238
43.0..........2.034....(This was definately me..not the gun)

Avg...........1.140
Best group was .610

Now, why would you mess with that? That's damn good accuracy for a new rifle.
Remember the old addage, IF IT AIN'T BROKE - DON'T FIX IT!!!

Well, your rig, so gamble if you must. Good luck.
