[QUOTE="lancetkenyon, post: 1511122, member: 68875"] I have 5 rifles built off trued R700 actions, and one with a custom action, a Lone Peak Fuzion TI. If you have an R700 as a donor, and don't want/need all the bells and whistles, they can be just as accurate for a hunting rifle. But the cost to get all the same features as a custom is about the same as just buying a custom. Besides truing, you can add: fluted bolt, tac bolt knob, M16 extractor, TI firing pin/spring, alloy bolt shroud, side bolt stop, pinned recoil lug. All that adds up to the cost of a custom. But you don't NEED all that for an accurate R700 action. Just upgrades. A standard R700 bolt from the factory works just fine, so does the bolt stop release in the trigger, and factory ejector clip/pin. If you plan on doing all that work, just sell the R700 action and put that money into a custom. [/QUOTE]
