Top Gun,
November 25, 2012
I ordered this rifle from a local dealer and waited for a year to finally get it in May of 2010, (hard to get this gun in Canada.) It was definitely worth the wait. Consistently shoots sub 1.25cm. groups at 200 meters . I now use the 5R for all my hunting including varmitt shooting. Great gun , it`s a keeper. JZ

Accurate to say the least,
August 08, 2012
Their is not much of a challenge with this rifle, using cheap factory load ammo to roughly zero my Vortex Viper PST, their wasn't the 3shot groups expected, just one hole that 3 bullets just so happened to pass through. And 300 yards isn't much different, easily taking out the symbol of Pepsi cans. Defently the best $1000 I have ever spent

Custom accuracy out of a factory box!,
February 15, 2012
I bought this gun about 3 years ago and put Super Sniper optics on it. This factory Remington with the R-5 barrel competes, and sometimes beats, my friends $3500 custom 700 build with a Leopold tactical on it. I can honestly say with 175 gr. Sierra BTHP reloads, this is an accurate 800-1000 yard gun! You'll be bored punching dime sized groups at 300 yards. :)

WOW. Great value,
January 27, 2012
I can't believe how well this rifle shoots. I was almost ready to order a $3500 rifle, but I found this one at Impact and after researching and reading the reviews, I decided to save a ton of money and order the 5-R. This rifle is super accurate and I am super pleased. Thanks for offering these rifles.

REMNGTON SS 5R 308 MIL.SPEC,
January 08, 2012
THIS IS WITHOUT A DOUBT THE MOST ACCURATE FACTORY PRODUCTION RIFLE I HAVE EVER USED. THE 5R BARREL IS THE BEST IN TIGHT GROUPS AND LIKES MANY DIFFERENT LOADS. ONLY THING I DID WAS ADJUST TRIGGER DOWN TO
1 3/4 LBS. WHICH I CAN LIVE WITH. DO PUT GOOD OPTICS ON THIS RIFLE AND ENJOY SHOOTING.

Great Rifle,
November 08, 2011
This is the best rifle I have ever shot. If any 5 shot group at 100 yards is more than one hole, it means I was shaking. At 300 yards 1 1/2" groups are typical with good handloads. 168 grain Hornady BTHP with 44 grains Varget is the best combo I've found.

very nice rifle. 3/4 inch groups at 200 yards with minimal load development and no adjustment to the factory trigger. heavy for range-work or beanfield from a shooting house, not for a climbing stand by any means. wish i had more time to play with it.
