    Rem 700 bolt w/ short shroud

    Re: Rem 700 bolt w/ short shroud Why not chuck your shroud up in a lathe and just shorten it to length of the early 700's? The anti bind rail was added early 70's when the letter prefix started being used in front of serial number. A newer bolt will work in the older action but an older...
