I used to shoot High Power Me too.......just imagine how well he could have shot with a good rifle. By "High Power" Swampy must mean he once fondled a Browning Hi Power, but because it didn't come in a green box, he was afraid, shooting it only in his dreams where he's the bravest of the brave... I wonder how many of his tight "groups" are at short range...

Remington SS ADL's sell in the high 400's in my area at the local Dicks. I keep hearing about the new Remington 700 at Dick's for $350.00 Do you think Swampy would be less than honest?

All those can't be Remingtons. You're going to get off the reservation if you aren't careful...

I dislike the Ruger and Sako systems. They limit you to the factory supplied junk.
A Remington 700 needs no work at all to shoot 1/2 MOA groups. Not exactly...unless your talking Warne, Talley's, and perhaps some others. As to accuracy, I used a 700 6BR to win a local BR match once...informal....4 of 5 into 1.5" at 415 yds....they will shoot....consistently....when trued and custom bbl'd. Stock - they may or may not. Yet the funny thing is - all this talk about 'Cut Lugs' and such....my Ruger #1, barreled by the SAME company that did the 700 above......well it shot the best group at 330 yds I ever fired...into .498"...yep, just an OLD single shot falling block action....w/o having any 'Lug Work' done...nor extractor. Now my most accurate overall so far would put 3 into 1/4" time and again at 200 yds......a CLONE....Stiller in 6BR. Clones shoot better than Clowns.... Now for a factory rifle...my Sako 260 SPORTER M75 GW, would put the FIRST 2 into ONE HOLE, and did it consecutively. I NEVER had a CLOWN do that.....oh, that was 200 yds mind you. It DID have NON Factory supplied Talley's. OH, OUT THE BOX...FACTORY....gun AND rings....there does come to mind a Model 1-A Ruger, single shot in 243....first group out the box - 3/8" at 100 yds........so much for Clown's cornering the market on accuracy. Hmmm, maybe a single shot has Magic over a magazine rifle? OR...Maybe it's the Junk factory rings that are built like a tank. Laughing. ALL guns are capable - some are just more consistently accurate -AND reliable and dependable. I would NEVER bet my life savings that Clowns would win in an all out scientific sampling of non hand-picked rifles untuned.

Either I am the Kwisatz Haderach or someone who keeps his extractor and bolt face free of brass shavings and gunk, and loads ammo below the brazing point............ Dude...... Thats funny right there.I dont care who you are. dave

Even the very best gunsmiths can't get a Ruger #1 to shoot. To say there has ever been an accurate #1 is laughable. They suck more than most Rugers and that's saying a lot.

In the face of evidence to the contrary, you come up with THAT? Your mother really did raise a fool and it wasn't one of your siblings... Had my Ruger #1 at the range this last weekend. It is not a one-hole rifle but it shoots better than my M700 .30-06.

No, I'm not a Ruger bigot - just an unabashed fan of their revolvers, M77's and #1's.
A good .30-06 is a 99% solution.

There is no evidence to the contrary. The #1 is right there with the Mini-14 & Mini-30 as some of the most inaccurate firearms on the market.

Swampman, I suppose you can find a Ruger #1 that is a problem gun, like you can find 700 bolt handles that were not brazed properly....but go to the single shot forum and learn what others experience. One guy has a 7x57 RSI mannlicher stock, seems it shoots like a bench gun.
None the less, I think you been listening to too much Journey - Faithfully:
Oh Girl
You stand by me
I'm forever yours
Faithfully
Circus life
Under the big top world
We all need the clowns to make us smile
Somehow you thought that song was about 700s.
But you missed the line above those lyrics.
"Ain't always what it's supposed to be"
That pretty much sums up the 700 - clown.

A Remington 700 needs no work at all to shoot 1/2 MOA groups. Clones shoot better than Clowns.... That's a good one, 65BR. And very true, regardless of "wisdom" otherwise circulated on the Fire.

Swampy, give us the name, address and phone number of the store selling the $350 ADLs. Simple way to end the discussion ....... the silence will be over whelming! According to Bud's gunshop (excellent prices) they have ZERO ADLs in stock and the most recent price quoted on a 7mm08 or 308 was $393.00 (PLUS shipping) Put up or shut you you bald face BSer !
