700's are great bolt guns I have a 700 custom deluxe chambered in 300 Ultra mag and love it.

Finally got the darn pictures to work. Some how my original photo album I had up there disappeared so I had to creat a new one and I must have had it all screwed up because it wasnt copying the image location correctly.

Matt, Don't look now but, there is a big hole in Your stock. [wink]


You know the weight differance between the old setup and the new?

no I dont. It was already setup the way you see it. But the guy I bought it from had the extra parts laying around and shipped them to me.

I dont even have a scale that I can use to weight the new. I am quessing around 8-10 pounds though for the new setup.

I will see if I cant find a way to weight it and let you know.

And the bolts on the wrong side!

Rifle like that needs a music box gun case.

Open it up and it starts playing that old telephone company jingle:

"Reach out, reach out and touch someone..."

Oh yeah, welcome to the dark side... Now you can legitimately ask... "Should the target hear the shot before it hits them or after?" [roll]

AND just wait until you decide you want one of them mighty fine NightForce NSX optics! I cry everytime I think about getting better optics for my Remmy 700.

I'll be interested in checking out the feel of the stock next time I get a chance to make it to a shoot.

You guys are more than welcome to shoot it next time we both are at a shoot.

Finally went out and shot it today.

Boy does it shoot NICE!!!!

Hardly any recoil, super accurate.

I was picking off pop cans at 600 yards with it.

Why do I suddenly feel like John Wayne's character in "Big Jake" to say "Son, I can't even SEE that far!"
