Precision load for m1903a4 Remington?

To be honest with you, it's quite a shame what happened to that 1903, they are wonderful rifles. I am the proud owner of a Springfield Armory M1903 A1 made in 1912, in amazing condition, unaltered... and many times it has put purpose built competition rifles to shame. I'm not the type to handload special rounds for one gun, but I've had the best results with Federal Ammunition. My 1903 holds an MOA and "then some" (lol) out to six hundred yards and beyond (standard factory stuff). Find the heaviest bullet you can, and use that... match grade ammunition will be expensive, that's a fact, but it's not necessary to handload shells for it. Too bad they butchered an A4, and not one of the everyday runner A3 models... oh well, at least you are trying to make it into something respectable, and I applaud that. I hate seeing sporterized M1903s. It's just horrible, even when it's done right... it just feels unnatural... Good luck with it.
