    Bolt knob install question

    KRG all the way. Fast install that's not permanent. Works great with no clearance issues.

    remington 700 re-barrel

    Mine is .308 standard bore. I only shoot factory spec ammo either 175 gr Blackhills or reloads that are built to the same specifications. I only cared about a tight group when I sighted it in. I normally shoot 18x24 AR500 steal plates at distances of 450 to 1400 yards.

    remington 700 re-barrel

    What was in Stock was the key deciding factor for me too. Bartlein had my barrel in stock ready to ship. The other manufacturers I was looking at were all 4 to 12 months order times.

    remington 700 re-barrel

    Looks like Bartlein has about a 5 to 6 month order time. It is well worth the wait for their barrels. Bartlein Barrels, Inc. - Main Page The Smith who did the work on my rifle took about 1.5 months and that's a pretty fast turn around. I would expect at least 3 months on average.

    remington 700 re-barrel

    Another vote for Bartlein barrels, their cut rifle barrels are top notch. I have the M40 contour, cut to 20 inches with an AAC muzzebrake/flash hider. It did 1/2 moa no problem when I sighted it in at 100 yards using Black Hills 175gr match.

    where to get a good custom paint job

    You can always do it yourself. All it takes is some different shades of paint, Matte clear, some cut up sea sponge, and your imagination.

    I'm running the AAC Brakeout. There is no felt blast for the person behind the trigger.

    precision rifles... show em

    Started out back in 1992 as a bone stock Remington 700 PSS with hunting style rings/base and a Springfield Gen 1 Government model scope. Then I eventually I painted it. Now for the present. After burning out the factory barrel I decided to take the plunge and really upgrade it. Action has...

    Best Barrel maker?

    . This about sums it up perfectly. I ended up going with a Bartlien 5R 1/11.25 twist #7 M40 profile barrel. I originally wanted a Rock Creek but after finding out the wait was about 12 months I chose the Bartlien since they had exactly what I wanted in their in-stock ready to ship inventory. I...
