baldie Posted January 2, 2013 Report Share Posted January 2, 2013 Finished this one yesterday, the 1st of Jan. This is a .243 , built as a do it all gun I believe, as the owner does a bit of everything. Its a fully blueprinted Remmy 700 with a tactical bolt knob and a zero MOA picatinny rail. The barrel is a fluted Krieger 1 in 8" twist, with a 5/8" x 18 UNF thread and invisible cap. The metalwork is painted in H series armour black Cerakote 2 pack system. Trigger is an old style remington, stoned and tuned to a safe 1lb pull, and is lovely. The barrelled action was then fully bedded into a Robertson composite tactical stock with pillars and devcon. The stock was then repainted in OD green, tactical flat grey and matt black duracoat. The bolt is also fluted with straight flutes to match the barrel. Floorplate is std rem 700.

Your right must be new year senility slipping in Contour and fluting looked very similar. Don't stroke yours too much you may end up with an over length tube Have a great start to the new year Cheers Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
