[QUOTE="MudRunner2005, post: 1346227, member: 12995"] The Rem 700 5R Milspec rifles are civilian M24's on a short-action platform. They have 416R stainless 5R-rifled barrels (that are actual M24 barrels) that have been turned down to a Rem Varmint/Sendero contour, and hand-lapped at the factory. They are insanely accurate rifles, and are about as close to a custom shop or custom rifle as a factory rifle can get. The factory 5R Milspec barrels are as good as any aftermarket barrel I've ever shot. I have 2 of the 5R's, and looking to add a 3rd to the collection. The only issue, is that it still has the crappy lawyer-proof X-Mark Pro trigger that immediately needs replacing with a Jewell or Timney trigger as soon as you buy it. [/QUOTE]
