Anthony - sorry, I had sold them before reading your post.

Re: WTT: Berger Bullets Did a little research on this and it appears that there are ways of removing the moly and tumbling will work. However, it sounds like it makes a real mess in the tumbler. So...I'm going to try to continue to try to find someone who would like to buy or trade them.

Re: WTT: Berger Bullets Will that work well? I was afraid they would just sit at the bottom and not really tumble. I also didn't want to mess up the surface of the bullet.

I need a box of 7mm Berger VLD Hunting 168gr - Naked. I have a box of 7mm Berger VLD Hunting 168gr - Moly Coated AND a box of .30 Cal Berger VLD Hunting 190gr. Would trade either straight across.

Re: WTB - Remington BDL Bottom Metal - SOLD Found most of what I needed.

Hi heelerx2 - PM Sent

Hi Bob - what caliber is your assembly from? Thanks, Darius

Looking to buy Remington Long Action Bottom Metal for BDL. Would prefer the whole assembly but would consider piece parts.

SOLD....or traded actually. Anyway, bolt is gone.

Looking for: - Hinged floorplate - Magazine box - Spring and follower - Action screws Finish color does not matter. Going on a straight .284 in a long action. It appears that the mag box, spring, and follower might be different between magnum and non-magnum...but that is not...

Even for a long action there seems to be different followers and boxes. I'm assuming that for a .284 it would take the non-Magnum parts (30-06). It's not clear to me what is different.

Dalebow - what did you use for the magazine box, spring, and follower? The floorplate is pretty straightforward (long or short are only options)...the other parts seem to come in a couple different options for the long action.

I have a remington 700 ADL I'm using as a base to start a build. I'm going to go with a hinged floorplate on the new rifle and I'd like some help to determine exactly what I need to get to is all works together right. The new rifle will be a straight .284 in a long action. I thought I'd...

That is factory finish. It's from an ADL purchased in the 2001(ish) timeframe. Rifle was bought for my little brother...he shot it a few times and had it out hunting a couple times. Since it's just sitting around I just took it off his hands and plan to use the action for a build.

I have a bolt assembly from a 7mm Mag with very few rounds (<100) through it. Very good condition as you can see from pics. I'm starting a .284 build and I need a standard sized bolt face. I'm looking to trade/swap someone straight across for either the whole assembly or just the bolt...
