    Remington 700

    Here's my thoughts on this rifle. The old ones are better than the new ones. I had a heavy barrel .308. in a synthetic stock. Very heavy but very accurate. Took it stalking once ( only once 😒 ). Then I got a new sps in 7-08. Out of the box it was total pants. It would not eject cases it took 3 ejectors before it worked. The trigger was rubbish replaced it with a Timmney. The stock was cheap and nasty, put a Bell and Carlson block bedded on. The point is if I got another one before I took out of the shop I'd strip it down and only take the action. A good rifle spoilt by accountants

    In support of Timney:

    I had a .308 700 bdl which had a lousy trigger so I visited Timney in AZ while on holiday, got a great tour and built myself a new trigger. I had to set it up too as they wouldn't set it below 2lb at the time. Great blokes, great product, really helped my 700.
