I’m not gonna argue with you and I’m not a gunsmith but I believe you’re mistaken because mine has that Mauser extractor on the side exactly like a model 70 it’s a model 70 clone and I’ve talked to a few people and they all said that it does need the extractor slot cut but I have been wrong before

Mines not really an accuracy issue other than that back factory aluminum pillar doesn’t reach the Thang my steel ***** about 1/ quarter to a half inch at 100 yards it’s just so stinking heavy and I’m not really a fan of a Woodstock for a hunting rifle even if it is laminated that glue is heavy.

I never said I thought it would be light weight. All I said was it’s too **** heavy and the pillars are worthless. After all they’re the only people making the things so I figured I’d try one. It’s awful IMO.

Freaking HEAVY! 600s are short guns. 18” barrels and with a Boyd’s laminate stock it weighs More than a full size rifle. By over 1.5lbs. Also the back pillar doesn’t even touch tang on the rear of the action. It’s 1/2” short. Boyd’s says that’s normal. I’m like why even put a pillar bed on the...

I’d really like something with a big aluminum block

I still like messing with these old Remington 600s. I’ve got 3 of em and they all shoot good with handloads. I want to put some “new furniture” or “Plastic” on them. Might try a fancy fiberglass stock if I could find someone to do a full inlet on a HS stock as NOBODY I can find makes a drop in...

I am looking for a Model 70 control round feed "smith". I have yet to find a gunsmith that likes and enjoys building on those actions. I have a Montanna 1999 that is a M70 clone and want it re-barreled to a different caliber and cartridge. Any suggestions?

I’m bot paying that. That’s stupid IMO. 1/4 Mil for any animal is a waste or money.

I have obviously opened a BIG box of head scratching with my OP. I'm sorry to have all yall reply and me working out of town so much now. it may be a bit before I can really dig into all this information. Might just be easier to send the scope back to Leupold and have them change it to MOA if...

I have that app on my phone and love it.

Dang my wife would kill me and mount me on the wall If I spent 10K on a hunt...

To all on the thread that replied Ill go back and reread all the replys, I got VERY busy at work and dont have time to mess with it right now.

I got the Detroits covered, Straight 40wt in my 16v92 as far as the shovelhead Ill stay with the M8 114ci on the RGS

Been working out of town in South Texas just had a few minutes to come back and check on the thread so the answer is no. Hope is slows down at work soon

The company just happens to sell a machine that costs $1400 bucks so it is in their best interest to say their stuff is better. I'm out $100 bucks for all the salt stuff and about $50 for the ammo can Machine I made. I do think Induction heating is a better more consistent way to make case...
