Remington 700 Police – Custom Build

A good friend of mine seems to have an endless supply of disposable income. As you will see below he spared almost no expense customizing a Remington 700 rifle. It’s a beauty. Now all I have to do is convince him to go to the range and give me and all of the readers here a proper range report of the rifle, including pictures of the targets and ammo used.

I know he checks this web site periodically. I’m calling you out buddy. I mean it. You should feel guilty for not taking this bad boy to the range. Till then here is a list of everything that he’s done to it plus pics.

PTR-91 Scope/Mount Combination

Several people have asked what kind of scope and mount combination I have been running on my PTR-91 since I put up pictures with a previous post. I decided to put a Low Profile Rail Scope Mount on my PTR-91 instead of a STANAG Steel Claw Mount to keep the scope as close to the rifle as possible. I then mounted a MOA Vortex Viper PST 1-4×24 scope in a ADR-X 2 inch Offset Cantilever Ring Mount.

The above combination is rock solid and very accurate. It was rather costly but worth every penny. The scope and mount were an investment and I can use them on different rifles in the future if I ever decide to sell my PTR-91.
