[QUOTE="davkrat, post: 1001919, member: 6452"] I can relate. My long range rig consists of a 20+ year old Rem 700 ADL action. Originally in .270. Bought a magnum face bolt off someone on here then later a 7mm Rem Mag takeoff also from someone on here. Swapped the firing pin out of the old bolt in to the new and slapped a Nikon 4-16X50SF Monarch on it. Just recently added a BC Medalist stock and a Jewel trigger. Bit by bit I've changed it a hundred bucks here 200 there. I could now afford to go out and buy a straight custom but doubt I ever will, too much fun tinkering. As is the gun is more accurate than I can shoot it from field positions, what more do you need? For my kids I intend to get them each a 700 SPS in some caliber and then walk them through the same process improving little bits here and there. [/QUOTE]
