[QUOTE="jaginger, post: 2382624, member: 121407"] OK looking for a few thoughts on the practicals of putting this together. Here's what I want: ** Rem 700 in .308 (this is just what I want, not b/c it's best or rem supporter or anything. It's actually a gun I *don't* have so starting there.) ** Want it in the Magpul stock, either Hunter or Enhanced, don't care much which but one of those. ** 20 - 24 barrel, not too picky but would lean toward the shorter end. Threaded would be a pretty big plus, not a must-have. Use will be mostly ringing steel from 400-800 yards. So, what is baffling me a little is all the action/barrel combos out there to start from. I could just buy this if they ever come back in stock.

Or, the AAC-SD is pretty dang cheap [URL]https://safegunshop.com/product/remington-model-700-sps-308-tactical-aac-sd-threaded-silencer-ready/[/URL]. Could just get that and put it in the stock I want. But are the guts of those rifles significantly different? I'm not sure the AAC is the same as the other one. I'd even just buy a barreled action since I know it's a drop-in to the stock I want. So, what's the most important thing I need to know regarding the action/barrel combos out there? Thanks for the help. [/QUOTE]
