[QUOTE="shortgrass, post: 1263710, member: 24284"] Unless it's a heck of a deal, you can buy a new, CNC made 700, on GunBroker, and have a better action for your build. You'll want to toss the trigger, but you won't have to change out the firing pin spring and it'll go right in a H-S stock (made for a 700) without the tang standing proud and the bolt handle will fit in the notch and look 'right'. The new made 700 action is 'head & shoulders' above the 'old' 700 and 721/722 in 'straightness' every time. The new actions, that are boxed and sold as action w/bolt & X-Mark trigger, have an acceptable fit & finish unlike the 700 rifle sold at the big box stores (that looks like its been blasted with road gravel).
