I just picked up a Remington 700 6mm Remington Varmint circa 1970's production. I have the action designated for a .260 Remington build.

As Remmy 700's run would this be considered a better one?
 
Re: Old Remington 700 actions

iv heard the older rems are better but im not sure. it will be fun to see what people have to say about this
 
Re: Old Remington 700 actions

I've got several from that era and ro me they seem to be a little nicer and more desirable for a build that the newer ones.
 
Re: Old Remington 700 actions

their all the same as far as the action the bolts differ a slight bit, your good to go im my $.02 if its not assembled barreled action i would get it trued just in case the barrel treads are "buggered" lol
