-Remington 700 action - G serial # (not trued)

-EGW 20 MOA pic rail
-Timney Single stage 510

I’m trying to sell this quick to get the cash for a customer action. Email or DM works.

Any questions, feel free to ask, thank you!!!

You mention it's threaded for a compensator. Does it come with a thread cap is one were not to fit a compensator? Also, why are you selling the barreled action?

I had the privilege to borrow this gun for a couple of stages at 1000 yds a few weeks back (thanks again!) and it made a noob like me look good. Great gun, great guy, buy with confidence. I'd buy it if a new rifle were in the budget right now.

I have the opportunity to buy a Curtis Custom action and barrel - don’t have the money to buy them without selling the other. The compensator that’s on there comes with the gun.

That was a good match for that rifle.

Is the action trued

Is the action trued

- no there wasn’t enough bang for the buck - I planned on getting a custom action later on - didn’t want to spend the money now when I was going to replace it eventually

107 SMK, Lapua brass,

I am getting single digit SD’s and ES’s of 10 or less. However; I anneal after every firing, use the Fx with Area 419 autotrickler, and air my powder out.

How is feed & ejection of the stubby 6BR case in the 700SA? Ejector modified at all?

 

[Jrcrowe]

Feeds with zero issues. With out without the BR variant mag inserts. I use traditional AI Magazines with the area 419 extended. I love those new MDT mags, but don’t really want to pony up the dough for them if I’m going to get a different action. I had the extractor spring adjusted because it was to tight, spent casings were coming off the bolt face before being completely out of the chamber. It’s still a strong extractor spring and will throw the case a little ways out of the ejection port, but it never leaves the bolt face before it’s completely out of the chamber. If you want I can email you a video to prove it.
