Finally made it to the range this morning to test out my new Remarms 700 Long Range 300 Win Mag 5R.Looks like she's going to be a good shooter.It came with the Timney non-adjustable trigger set at about 3.5lbs.The trigger is not too bad,but I usually run about a 2.5lb trigger.I only ran 12 rounds through it with two different loads.I ran a wet patch with Sta-Bil CLP,followed by a couple of dry patches after each shot.The barrel looks almost copper free throughout.I think I may have read the 5R rifling usually aren't bad about copper build up.Anyway here is nine of the first twelve shots I ran through it.

As Bob Hagel would say"You should not use a rifle that will kill an animal when everything goes right; you should use one that will do the job when everything goes wrong."Good words of wisdom...............

I have an older Hawkeye, which has been a very useful tool. I finally broke down and ordered a Teslong today. Being to take photos makes documenting barrel condition, quite easy.

And it’s just fun to look inside your barrels. The Teslong made that pretty affordable.
