Hi,
I'm considering getting a 700p in .308 for long range (500+ yard) shooting. It has a 26" barrel. I plan on putting a 20x or higher magnification scope on it.
Is 1 MOA out to 1000 yards with match ammo a reasonable expectation for this rifle, out of the box? Also, are there any concerns with quality control and reliability with late model remingtons?
I'm also looking at the savage 10fp, but am leaning toward the remington because it is so ubiquitous, which could be an advantage if I were to ever need spare parts.
Thanks,
LSW
