    Rifle Scopes Scope ring height question - Vortex PST on R700 clearance

    I have the same scope on my 700 using a Precision Armament 20moa rail and Vortex precision low rings. These are .87, so you should be GTG with low rings.

    Gunsmithing Are the new Remington triggers really junk?

    I have nothing to go by as I never got the chance to actually shoot the thing. Bottom line is I'm stuck with buying a new trigger, so I ordered a Timney tonite.

    Gunsmithing Are the new Remington triggers really junk?

    He did not 'elaborate' on just how it was broken, just showed me a bag of trigger parts that were 'mine'.

    Mcree grip

    I swapped mine out with a BCM Gunfighter mod 0 grip. The original A2 grip cocked my wrist un-naturally, and the BCM is a little more vertical. Now it is a very comfortable platform to shoot from. Mike

    DIY Bolt knob install

    I found this as an alternative, just to see if I liked the feel of a large knob. Tactical Bolt Lift for the Remington® 700 - Accessories I personally like the ones Precision Armament makes, but would use my mill to size down the bolt handle to be threaded. Mike
