[QUOTE="BountyHunter, post: 1008385, member: 12"] Your 700 is a long action, standard bolt face. IMO, the WSM would not be a good candidate due to two things. Action work to get it to feed and UNLESS going to a new PTG bolt, either in one piece or two piece but either way it can come with either M16 or Sako extractor and rail work to get the WSM to feed. Plus you can order a new bolt sized for your action dimensions. Plan on $250 for that plus you can sell the old bolt to offset the costs. Either way order the bolt. 7mm Mag would be a better choice New barrels run just over $300 and shipping. Plan on $340 chambering will run $150-250 and then another $40-50 for crowning. Those are the norms. Truing up a 700 action will be $150-300 minimum Bedding any action will be $150-200 stock-Stockys laminated all ready to go with bedding blocks cost $300 and drop in, others can cost up to $700 and add bedding. Good trigger will run $140 for newest Timney Bottom line plan on spending $1000 minimum and up. [/QUOTE]
