On second thought don't answer that.

Isn't that what your tattoo says?

I saw one of those Savage Tactical packages with the leupold scope, harris bipod, etc...looked pretty sweet...

Does anyone know of anywhere that is offering a REM 700 LTR package? I know a few of the cop houses used to offer the PSS packages...

the remington part number for the 700 TWS is 5711.

The TWS package includes a LeupoldÂ® Vari-Xâ„¢ III (3.5 x 10) scope with a Duplexâ„¢ reticle and flip-open lens covers. A Harris bipod, a Michaels 1" Quick Adjustâ„¢ sling with swivels, a rugged PelicanÂ® hard case, and sample of Remington gun care products to round out the system. It's only available in .308 Win./26"BBL.

don't dig the duplex scope. and they don't allow you to swap out for a mildot. the package is the package.

Right...that's for the regular .308...I was wondering if they had a similiar package with the shorter LTR barrel.....I guess not, thanks anyway.

OK, Rifle Project is under way. My Savage model 10FP-LE2 arrived today. Now, I need optics. Working where I do, I figured I would just go with the best we have in the warehouse here. I present: The Leapers Golden Image 3-9X40

Next I will need Rings for such a wonderful optic. Once again, Nothing but the best:Rings

WOW Air .177

Man you are going all out on this thing. Be careful you don't break the bank.

Air.177 · 06-18-2004, 15:01

What else is there? Oh yes, the Stock. I find Savage's factory Synthetic hard to beat, so why improve on perfection I say. Scope Base, No need to go throwing money around, I have a scope base for another rifle along with a Dremel tool at the house. With those tools, I figure I could probably mount that wonderful piece of Glass to just about anything.

Hey, why bother with that factory stock?

Just get a 2x6 and whittle one out.

Matter of fact, skip the pricey rings and use duct tape.

And you really don't need the barrel if you have a piece of 1/4" pipe. Just wrap it real heavy with the tape, the first round should blow it out to .30.

You could also use a bolt type lock for the action if you are low on bucks.

Some good tips here:

Yeah, I kind of used the Brilliant ideas of the Birdman group as a template for my Masterpiece

Air.177 · 06-18-2004, 15:32

All kidding aside, This is the scope I am putting on my rifle. I picked it up from these guys yesterday and it is Very Nice. I plan to mount it with a base from Ken Farrell and Leupold PRW rings. I'll follow that all up with an HS Precision Stock.

BMPDsniper93 · 06-20-2004, 20:39

It's looking good, nice glass, can't go wrong with Ken Farrell base or HS Precision stock, but you may want to take a look at Precision Reflex rings, which will withstand the recoil of a .50 cal. and your glass won't budge, you can check them at pri-mounts.com or mountsplus.com.

Air.177 · 06-22-2004, 17:26

Here is a pic of the rifle and the Scope.

Air.177 · 06-22-2004, 17:28

I'll get the mount and rings as funding allows, but I've almost got it together.

Smokin Joe · 06-22-2004, 18:55

How is the action on it?
