![[Linked Image]](http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y295/Marksman6mmbr/Firearms/DSC_0740_01_zps8297c309.jpg) Just picked up my 30-06 Long Range tonight. The stock is in fact aluminum bedded and the barrel is fully free floated. First thing I did was swap the trigger for a Rifle Basix 8oz-24oz model. The base I choose sits my 50mm scope a little high with low rings, so I might add a cheek pad of some sort. Overall, I'm a happy camper. What base did you go with?

One from a company called Xtreme Hardcore. Honestly the dumbest name I've come across, but it's 20 moa with a level built into the back.

My buddy just picked one up today from Cabelas in 7 mag, and the stock fit looked be very nice. As an added bonus, the barrel was centered perfectly in the channel.
It's a WHOLE lot of gun for $650.

If you're not burning through batteries in your headlamp,...you're doing it wrong.

Mines under 3 feet of snow, so it'll be awhile before I get to shoot.

tackdriver22250 - have one of these on order w/my LGS. He could not get a delivery date from Remington. How long did it take for you to actually have the rifle in your hands after you ordered it?

Homesteader I ordered mine straight from BudsGunShop online when I knew they were in stock and sent it to my local FFL. I had it in about a week.
