Hey all,
So I have been shooting F-class for two seasons now, absolutely love it, and have a desire to get better. I was recently classified Expert.
I would like to make my rifle more accurate, to help my scores, in addition to me working on my fundamentals, and overall skill.
Right now, running a Remington 700 .308, 26" factory remington barrel. I have changed the trigger to a Timney, changed the stock to a bell and carlson medalist with vertical grip, more weight etc. The gun will shoot .5 inch groups all day.
My question is, which of these two upgrades will help me more, speficially F-class:
Upgrade to a higher end and higher power scope: Sightron SIII 8-32x56 1/8 MOA clicks (I currently run a Vortex Viper 6.5-20X50 Mil-Dot with 1/4 MOA clicks)
and/or
Have the rifle fully bedded, true the action, other small upgrades by my gunsmith. (Probably do this regardless)
Biggest question I have though: Is the scope worth it? Will it help me enough to justify the cost?
Appreciate your thoughts!
