Fleabag Posted May 12, 2008 Report Share Posted May 12, 2008 Hi folks, So, I'm hoping to get the chance to bring my Remington VL SS Thumbhole .223 to a gunsmith this summer to get some improvements done. One in particular, to install a Jewell trigger, or take advice from gunsmith on a better/alternative route. Since I'll be getting that done for sure, I'm just wondering what else I should get done to improve my set up. Besides getting someone with a better shot to shoot it Sunday was the last day I had it out, best two groups were a 0.5" three shot group and a 0.6" three shot group, both at 100 yards. I had given it a damn good scrubbing earlier that day and it needed a few rounds through it to calm down. Trigger will definately improve it and me. I'm feeding it 40 grain Hornady Vmax (moly coated). I hope to apply for a moderator later on in the year. I've to sound out that application process yet so getting it screw cut is an option that's up in the air with me at the moment. Possible recrown job at the same time. So what else should I be considering for my foxing rig? Thanks in advance John other then a good pess mod john, don't see what else there is you can do to that already fine weapon, mine is oh so quite now.

DaveK Posted May 12, 2008 Report Share Posted May 12, 2008 You could always get the action blueprinted. Cost a bit though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fleabag Posted May 12, 2008 Report Share Posted May 12, 2008 Hi FB, Is the PES adding much length to your rifle? Have got suggestions of bedding elsewhere, and shooting five shot groups not three, which is also a good idea, or possibly a depressing one only 100 ml, its a reflex. you leaving home then.
