    Which bottom metal & DetMag for Rem 700

    I've been looking at the Surgeon also and have learned that on most if not all stocks it will require some trimming of the stock for it to fit. I will be putting one in my B&C 1000 M40 and although I am handy with a Dremel I plan on having the trimming done by a gunsmith who has done it before...

    Gunsmithing Recommend a gunsmith in SE PA?

    Thanks for the replies so far. I am really hoping to find someone that I can get to easily. I often travel to the York area so I may check out Bob Green. He was also listed in the link offered by Switchbarrel. Can anyone else offer some opinions?

    Gunsmithing Recommend a gunsmith in SE PA?

    Can anyone recommend a gunsmith in SE PA to check and true the action on my Rem 700 SPS AAC-SD as well as install a brake? I am near Reading midway between Philadelphia and Harrisburg. I would like to find an excellent gunsmith that I can visit and drop off the rifle instead of sending it...

    Picking up my first bolt action - need advice please.

    Lots of good information. It has given me some more to think about, thanks everyone. I have already placed a deposit on the 700 and the price is only $619. I got a call that it's in and ready for pick up. I'm not sure if I will be changing my mind or not. Hey Deadshot2, can you tell me more...

    Picking up my first bolt action - need advice please.

    Thanks for your comments. I was planning to check the crown. A friend had suggested that I run my finger nail around the crown to feel for rough spots and to also check it with a magnifying glass. The rust is something I had not considered though. I would not have expected a new rifle to have...

    Picking up my first bolt action - need advice please.

    A huge grain of salt... good point. I'm sure it will out shoot me, my only rifle experience is with AR's a 10/22 or a Model 94 and never past 300 yds. I have been looking for the right used rifle and have not found what I want at the right price. This 700 is at a good price and I decided I was...

    Picking up my first bolt action - need advice please.

    Thanks for the reply. I figured it would come down to luck of the draw. I was just hoping there might be something obvious to look for. With all of my other interests and commitments this is what I can afford and the price was right. Hopefully it will be a good one... any other input?

    Picking up my first bolt action - need advice please.

    I'm a new guy, been lurking for awhile and finally joined. I will be picking up a new Remington 700 SPS Tactical AAC-SD in .308 from a local gun store. This is my first bolt action rifle and with some of the comments I've read about Remington and inconsistent quality I would like some pointers...
