Remington VTR upgrades
Well I have been having a VTR 308 for a few years now and finally getting around to getting some stuff for it. So far it is just sporting a konus M30 6-25x44 scope and broke down today to order a stock to get rid of the crap that came on it. Also sent out the bolt for a new handle to be installed. Below is the gun, stock I ordered (Bell and Carlson Light Tactical), and bolt **** that will be milled for it only difference is mine will be hollow. Hopefully it will be a little more solid and just maybe tighten up the groups a little. As it sits with hsm BTHP 168gr it will shoot 3/4" groups all day long at 100 yards.

I have shot it out to 600 once but it was the first time I had ever shot that far and I had a scope that was maxed out and ended up messing it up. Out to 300 it did good and at 100 it shoots .75-1" 3 round groups. Once everything gets in I want to try it again cause I know I have plenty of elevation now and lot better glass. Just have to find a range around the house that stretches that far.

I was really debating in between the 15 and 20 moa bases but I was worried about a 100 yard zero but now looking back scope has plenty of adjustment for a 20 moa or bigger base but 15 moa base should be more then enough for what I will ever shoot. Also running some 6 screw rings I want to say are weaver tactical. If I ever get good enough and have a spot to shoot farther I will deal with that then. Found a 300 yard range around the house but really want to get use to 600 yards and go from there. Good shooting from a stock gun for sure.
