Good day everyone. I'm new on this site so I am writing this in hope that you can help me.

I bought this rifle about 20 years ago in W. Germany. It is a Krico model 600 in caliber .308 Win. It has no metallic sights. Its trigger is of a single-set variety and it has a Schnabel fore-end. Its action looks like a copy of a Remington action aka 2 locking lugs in the front. However, the smoothness of it all seems like something Remington would have been proud of, especially the adjustability of the trigger group. I've been on the internet and the information on Krico is sparse (read nada). All I have found is information on when the company was compiled into another, but nothing on the model 600. Can you help me?

I assume it is a very accurate rifle.

Tradewinds in Seattle, WA, imported Krico 600s, marked "Tradewinds 6000" in the late 1960s or early 1970s. I had 1 in 22-250 that was a great shooter.

Krico's were also sold in the USA as Kriko's.

They had a good reputation as being very accurate rifles.

I seem to remember reading somewhere that Kriko's had lothar walther barrels and the last one I looked at had a single stack mag like a Sauer 202 and had a very smoth action.

Thank you all for your responses. I agree that when parts fit well together that the potential is there for accuracy. Of course, I have to do my part. I am thinking of tailoring a load for this rifle. Not having manufacturer information, I don't know this rifle's twist. I know that trigger pull is adjustable, but that sear engagement is not. The barrel is not of the heavy type. Does anyone have an idea of where to start? I just don't want to go to the range just for the sake of burning powder, with no goal in mind.

Start with the component that you like and bullets in the 150 to 165 grain range. I really like 165 grain Nosler BTs in my 308s.
