R22M40XHBBR and R22M40XUSMCBR are these the same profile and inletting as rem 700, these are single shot actions.
These are action and barrel only, no trigger group and bolt.
PTG has bolts and I just started to look up avalable trigger groups.
Is there spell check in the posting box and I'm just missing it. </div></div>
My understanding was that the USMC marked receivers are not 700 pattern? </div></div>
That is correct, they are 722 based recievers. The tang is thicker and doesn't set very well in a stock inletted for a 700. Also the safety lever is alongside and below the top edge of tang whereas on the 700/40-XB/XR based recievers there is a relief cut on right side for safety to set alongside and above the tang. I put a standard barrel 40-X into a 700 stock and while it works the tang area makes it look like an afterthought despite my cutting a relief for 700 style/40-XB trigger.
Sorry I don't have any closeup of tang area but you can see in the top pic where right behind the bolt handle there is metal sticking up above woodline.
