I've taken 3 deer with the Barnes TAC-TX (black tips). They have performed great every time and the deer always expire quickly and don't go very far, leaving massive blood trails. Couldn't recommend them more.
The CMP wood fitment is good. Lockup of the trigger guard is tight! I greased the pins and still had to push REALLY hard to get it to close. I only messed with it a few minutes before throwing it in the safe, so I didn't pull the spring to check to see if the oprod moves freely in the stock.

Adjustment to factory triggers can be hit or miss. They're not as precisely made as the aftermarket triggers, so you can't always get good results just by turning the adjustment screws. Also, with Remington, if you touch the trigger, other than the X mark pro trigger's weight screw and you have...
There a quite a few people that want to fill out some sort of bill of sale. I don't and would rather not, though because I have a C&R license, I would need to retain buyer/seller info on eligible firearms. You can always say no if you don't want info given.

Send it in when you send your copy to the ATF. The idea of the CLEO notification is to give them an opportunity to present info that would make you ineligible if they had it.
When it comes down to it, this is an unenforceable rule. They don't call the PD to see if you sent it, so I don't know...
You sure about that? That's not a very common occurrence. It's much more likely that the ammo wasn't hot ENOUGH and the bolt never made it to the bolt stop. This is one of the first tests to diagnose a malfunctioning weapon.
Many gun owners are upset with them because during the post-Sandy Hook run on guns/ammo/mags, CTD jacked up their prices on magazines sky-high. Many viewed this as gouging gun owners when the supply was low, and they haven't forgotten it...
I used to go to Willow Slough all the time. I enjoyed the partially self-governed nature of the range. I've visited Kingsbury once, and while it was a nice range, it was further away and I didn't like paying.
That said, $4 is reasonable for the whole day on a public range. $7/hour is a frickin...
