Re: rail for my rem 700 338Lapmag

Your receiver is factory threaded for 8-40s, so unless you purchase a rail already machined to accept the larger screws and screw heads, you will have to modify it.

Once you get in to that range of quality rails, functionality is pretty much on an even field. I would recommend buying a rail that has a lug machined in to it, even though you will be using larger screws and your rifle has a comp, for me that lug provides added security to insure things don't go anywhere. Seekins and Nightforce rails have the recoil lugs.

I got the Larue 20 MOA base. Outstanding quality and it comes with 8-40 screws. Also has a recoil lug. Price was only $75 which includes a ton of freebies, including the awesome Dillo Dust.

I can have any of the Badger rails done to 8-40 if needed. When you order online, be sure to put the fact that you need the 8-40 modification into the order comments. I can usually get the rail mod done within 1 week, depending on Badger.
