[QUOTE="Truc, post: 1908542, member: 44771"] My comment was based on my gunsmiths recommendation when I wanted to install a long barrel on my 700. I have a 28” Remington varmint barrel contour on mine and works fine. But a heavy varmint contour at 30”, you can do but you should bed the first couple of inches by the recoil lug. It will work fine but expect to redo the bedding when you change the barrel. I used a barrel block in a rifle and free floated the action, wasn’t a fan of that either but it works. Last thing you can do is get an action with a longer tenon. [/QUOTE]
