[QUOTE="Fiftydriver, post: 176343, member: 10"] GG, I do not know the exact age of the two rifles I just worked on, only that they were purchased this year and were the CDL model. The bolt stop lever nose had to be bent slightly to get proper free movement but that is normal with any Rem receiver, at least not uncommon. Other then that everything functioned perfectly and as far as the receiver was a drop in fit. Now, the very newest receivers may be different for sure, obviously they are. Looks like Remington is trying to make it harder to apply aftermarket parts to their receivers. Only shooting themselves in the foot if that is their goal. Whats next, they going to make a non removable barrel design for their Rem 700?...... Oh well, all the more reason to go with a custom receiver!!!! I would agree with the comments about the springs and cold temps, their force changes noticably with dramatic temp changes. Kirby Allen(50) [/QUOTE]
