[QUOTE="Clark, post: 662896, member: 6600"] One can modify a Rem700 to try to bring it up to Win M70 standards: 1) Glue a shroud to the receiver to get a flat receiver bottom to resist bullet twist torque. 2) Get a Sako extractor modification to replace weak extractor with a bigger extractor. 3) Safety blocks trigger, not firing pin..... Gentry 3 position safety on firing pin 4) Recoil lug not attached... drill lug and receiver and then pin together. 5) Barrel may shake loose, apply glue. Vaughn also has proposed Rem700 design change. 6) Bolt handle soldered on and will break off, TIG weld on handle stronger 7) Not controlled feed... no cure 8) Plunger ejector instead of knife blade ejector... no cure 9) Failed case head shoots shooter in the eye with gas... wear eye protection [/QUOTE]
