Thanks for the replies. My rifle is a Rem 700 VS/LH in 308 Win. It is as close to a PSS as you can get with the Left Hand Action, heavy barrel, HS Precision stock (a bit different shape than the PSS). But if I have learned anything about bone stock factory rifles it is that some shoot very well, and some don't. This one is inconsistient, I get an occasional group of under and inch (at 100 yds), but the average is about 1.25 inches. This with mathc ammo or handloads paintakingly developed. I have tried all the good bullets in all weights from 155 grain Hornaday AMAX, 168 and 175 grain MatchKings. Of course the stock chamber is cut long, but still this can give good accuracy in some factory rifles. To me if it has a heavy barrel it needs to do 3/4 MOA or I dump it. I have had the trigger tuned and it is a crisp 3 pounds now. I am seriously concidering sending it to NorCal Precision, having him do the full tactical job on it and know it will shoot under a half inch when it comes back. All he will use is the action, that gets lots of attention, then he fits new stiff barrel, McMillan stock. Big bucks, but I'm tired of screwing around.
