    Because I feel like kicking a kitten.... (Rem 700)

    After seeing the prelims from MSNBC and CNBC I figured I'd post up a 700 I'm working on. Started life as a 700P that being used as a benchrest stick..


    Blackhawk Knoxx stock (don't ask, it's not staying for dinner), Warne 20MOA base & rings, Bushnell 3-12x FFP Slite 3200 (working well except one issue).


    Doping at 100yds.


    Running the Mary-Kate


    Pleased with the results, but I need to bring the time down. Currently 2.5min, needs to be sub 60sec (closer to 35sec actually).

    I'll post up more as I make progress.

    I'm assuming you don't care for the Knoxx/Blackhawk stock?

    Any specific reasons, or does it just suck in general? I've fondled a few in shops before, and wasn't overly impressed, but I thought it was a neat concept.

    That's correct. The short version is that the ff front is very 'springy' plastic and tends to bounce/flex a good bit even on bags. The 'shock reduction' is 'meh' at best.

    Is that a type of drill?
    I've never heard of it before.

    I've been eyeing the JAE stock for a M700 build next year. Anyone have one?

    My understanding is that no one has one yet. That stock has been in the works for several years now with no reliable estimate of delivery date.

    Yeah the JAE stuff is boat anchor heavy and EVERY last screw is an option that you have to pay for. I handled the prototype at SHOT (09?) and it was heavy. I'd be curious how they fare once they make it into competent end user hands however.
