I now have two 700 actions. Up front. The long action i paid less than 100 bucks shipped for. Its new and has no bolt. The short action I paid a little over 120 for and has not bolt. Both are blued and new.
For the long action I think I’m going to build as a 300 RUM as talked about in a previous thread.
For the short action I would like to build a straight up tack driver for 100 yard groups. Something that really just leaves a 1 hole or jagged hole. This will be the one that I use with my buddies as we shoot the Battle Ship targets at 100 yards. Tired of loosing these with my AR. Its good but by buddies bolt guns are better. Much better.
I have this stock in my hands now. https://wooxstore.com/products/chassis-furiosa Its for the short action and really sweet.
I know very little about the 700 only that I have one other in 35 whelen that is a blast to shoot and took its first griz last year.
What are good calibers and barrels to start with. This is where I know pretty much nothing.
