Remington 700 SPS Varmint - Jug Shooting

Shooting at a vinegar bottle with my .308. I know I'm not very good yet, but i was shaky that day and I'm still not used to shooting a high caliber rifle. I'm only about 50 rounds into the break in period because I can't shoot very often.

@Exetrithe thank you very much kind youtuber. Ive actually decided that im going to sell the gun because I dont really enjoy shooting it anymore. im more into pistols now.

Well even though your weren't that good back then and cant shoot often, your lucky to have a "range" in your backyard. No need to drive to get there :)

@mrsuperterd yea ive heard lots of good things about the tc rifles, but i havnt looked at any, whichever rifle i buy is going to be used primarily for varmint shooting, i dont really want to spend an arm an a leg since im in college but want a .308 so i can hunt everything from prarie dogs to deer without worrying about blowing all my money on ammo, ill check out the icons next time im at cabela's or another gun shop, i have heard that the sps rifles come with cheap stocks that bend on a rest

[mrsuperterd]

@snowyphil65 if you really want a rilfe I'd say go with a tc icon it will be that last rifle you buy in whatever cal. you choose it's hands down better than the 700 they come in houge stocks wich people upgrade thier 700 with also r-5 rifleing beats the tikka and weatherbys in the same price range I know buddy traded in his T3 for one and now wants to get ride of his weatherby for an icon warloard but he has more money than brians and don't like to read much haha could have saved him some money.

@mrsuperterd agreed, it took me 600 rounds (and lots of handloading to find the mix my rifle liked) to get a 2 moa group with my last rifle, but it was a p.o.s. so im buying one of these, ive been shooting for 11 years and have lots of experience with iron sights, so much more challanging than my 8-32 varmint scope

[mrsuperterd]

if you try something older like a lee enfield or mosin nagent it would be a great tool for learning. thats what I started out with .303 iron sights and still my favorite rifle. it good for deer out to 200yrd with iron sights it's kinda like shooting a bow. but markmanship is hard earned with a shit ton of time. what ever you do don't give up or get discougred fucking earn that shit. FOCUS it's like standing in front of a major league picther you have to be pumped every time, concentration is key

@ExtraEzon you should really be shooting 168 grain match ammo. those 700's love the boat tail hollowpoint round and are tremendously accurate. i use hornaday tap in my .308 and shoot 1 inch groupings at 100 yards. yes, the very same rifle you are shooting.

Hope you broke in the barrle first. I just put a 22-250 on layaway so it couldent be snatched from under my nose! :)

nice. i just started my first job yesterday, so once i start getting my paycheck i'll be trying to go shooting often as well. now i get to go once every few months if im lucky. and that would be great if you bring a camera, id love to see some vids. especially since its an a4 clone. let me know when you get them up!!
