[QUOTE="Fiftydriver, post: 95819, member: 10"] BH, That does not include sleeving the bolt. TO be honest, I am not sure what my opinion of that is yet as far as final results in the rifle. I have built Rem 700 based rifles with double sleeves, with rear sleeves only and with no bolt sleeves at all and all have produced groups in the .1"s at 100 yards in heavy rifles so not sure what benefit there really is in the Rem 700, espeically when you fit the bolt nose recess properly. THat said, here are my prices currently for such work. I say currently because Rem 700s will continue to increase in price over time. New, unfired, Chrome Moly Rem 700 Receiver....$375 Receiver accurising...........................$175 Bolt sleeveing, Front and rear................$150 Bolt sleeve, rear only........................$100 To for a double sleeved accurized Rem 700 it would be $700 and rear sleeved receiver it would run $650. Again, I think the amount of increased accuracy is still out for debate on sleeving the Rem 700 bolt. I am sure it makes some differnece but to what degree I can not measure in my rifles. I will say it is much easier to get a consistant, Light trigger pull with at least a rear sleeved Rem 700 bolt. Another major improvement is to use a custom match grade striker assembly. I use the Gre-Tan assembly exclusively in my rifles and this alone will also tighten up trigger to cocking piece fit and improve trigger pull consistancy.
