I just acquired another 700 and was thinking about a knob job for the bolt. I heard that there was a plastic "BOLT ON" bolt knob available. Has anybody tried one?

It's called the Bolt Lift, made by the KRG group and there has been a ton of threads on the Hide as to it's worth. Here's one:

I have it one of my 700's, and prefer it to the Badger Knobs I have on two others. The knuckle of my trigger finger hits the Badger knobs, but just clears the Bolt Lift.

Great product, very effective and sturdy, makes cycling the bolt much easier in the prone position. I installed mine in only a few minutes.

I think it's the best knob that you can get. You can put it on yourself. It doesn't get all banged up. I think it give a better/more positive purchase than the Badger. I love 'em. In fact, I just bought a rifle that has a Holland knob/handle on it and I'm sending it out to get a stock type of knob put back on it so that I can put a Bolt Lift on it.

Did you even read through the bolt lift thread that you tagged?
Seriously though, I have one, and it is great. I love it. If I ever pick up another 700, I will definitely grab another bolt lift for it immediately. Not to mention, its only a fraction of the cost of a permanent bolt knob install, which is always a good thing! (for us po' folk that have to think budget minded)

I've got one, beyond amazing. It some of the best $ for $ investment you'll ever make. I haven't permanently attached mine, simply because I don't see a need to. It's rock solid, and awesome.
