[QUOTE="Hired Gun, post: 1249112, member: 1290"] I just reread my post and want to apologize. I'm a bit stressed and feeling a bit negative about how the election is going and it looks like it came through in my post. A 700 is not a bad choice by any means for a custom. I just wanted you to be aware of the trends. The custom actions wouldn't exist if they didn't bring something to the table. From my previous post it's clear I like them. After the Mark 5 the 700 is my second choice beating out the Vanguard as the only other action I agree with design wise. The Vanguard suffers from a lack of Jewel trigger support. Trublue is right. In my mind truing is not always necessary. Some 700 actions are pretty good right as they come. The bolt body to action fit is tightened up by .004" with the addition of Cerakote inside and out. The barrel and bedding are the most important part of good accuracy. The heavier the barrel the more stabile and able to dampen vibration. Time for me to shut up or I'll end up writing another LRH book. [/QUOTE]
