Will Remington 700 bases fit weatherby vangaurd? I want a picatinny/weaver rail, will it work, I read it will, I just wanted to ask the pros.

Remember, just because the holes line up doesn't always mean it "fits".

I know a M700 rail will line up and bolt down on a Wby MkV action but I wouldn't call it a good fit.
