Remington 700 rebarreled

[JD338]

You have some very good loads that are ready to hunt. Nice work Dan.

I have a 7mm stw Douglas barrel that needs to be replaced. I hope my project goes as well as yours did-keep up the good work!

 

[Blkram]

So many options out there for you Firebird!
I would look at the MacLennan barrels, as mine will shoot 160 ABs into 1" groups @ 300 yards! Velocity also very good @ 3222 fps from a 24" barrel.

Nice job Dan! I think you have a winner there!
Maybe here's what's next up!!!
130 gr. Partition or AccuBond
H4831SC using Federal 215 magnum primers to work up a load.
Probably end up in the 58-60 gr. range where I bet you will find a great load for your rifle.
Good luck and keep us up to date on your success with it!

Doesn’t look too darned bad Dan. Which load are you thinking of using?

Going to sight in with the 145 ELDX load for this fall just because I haven't used it before. Hear good things about it. Dan.

Put a new walnut Stockys stock on my 270. Just never fell in love with that carbon fiber. Weights a ton now but plan on using it for a tower stand and field gun. Not much walking. Dan.

Looks really sharp. Hope the accuracy holds for you in the new stock.

 

[DrMike]

Very handsome. I know all the arguments for synthetic stocks, but wood just feels warm in my hands.

 

[JD338]

I really like that stock Dan. Looks great.

The new stock looks great, as do those scope rings.

Best of luck!

Thanks everyone. I had to remove a little wood for the bolt and bolt release lever to work properly plus just a little in the barrel channel. Also glassed the recoil lug area in the aluminum block because it was slightly oversized. No biggies. Accuracy seems as good no loss I can tell so far, anyway. Dan.

Rifle looks great Dan, as do those mounts.

Nice rifle there.
