[QUOTE="MudRunner2005, post: 927252, member: 12995"] They probably won't sell you (him) a blank without it being chambered already. If they won't, you'll be better off having the smith true up the action, and have a custom barrel installed. It will be better than anything Remington will send you. Plus, it's a good excuse to build a custom 7mm STW with a 26"-28" heavy barrel. :D If you don't want to spend much, just have the smith polish it out, hand-lap your barrel, true the action, headspace, and shoulder lug, and bed the action. That's a general accurizing package at most shops, and should make a noticeable difference, even with your factory barrel. [/QUOTE]
