Hey folks just getting a new 700P LTR in left hand and I dont know the first thing about these as its my first 700. There are a couple things Id like to do to it though to make it more fun at the range and on the hunt.



1- Im wanting to keep weight down on the rail so aluminum? Also wanting to swap scopes quite a bit so maybe I should spend the $$ and get TI because of the wear and tear?

2- trigger- want something that wont freeze up when wet and moist as it will be hunted with in Canada. Im scared of enclosed triggers....also doesnt need to be 12oz as its a hunting gun.

3- bolt knob- no clue what to get here. Want something more smackable.
 
I have a 20 MOA Leupold rail with LARUE QD mounts and love that set-up. Keeps scope low and easy to remove. A friend has an EGW rail, made of aluminum and seems to work just a well.
