good new stock for my 700ADL
« on: March 12, 2008, 01:39:54 AM »
So while i'm deployed, and just sitting around for now in Kuwait, i've decided to buy a new stock to replace the factory one while i understand as being reather flimsy and affecting the rifle's accuracy, whice my ADL seems to prove.
What stock/maker would suit the 700 ADL and if glass bedding the action and/or barrel are good things to do as well?

Thats a pretty open ended question. there are several different stocks that you can buy for your 700. McMillan,HS Precision,Bell & Carlson, Bansner,etc that all make stocks that will bolt right up. You need to look through a catalog or Midway USA to see all the different versions, pick one you like and fits your needs and have at it.

As far as bedding goes, that is purely choice. Some stocks come with an aluminum bedding block already installed so you dont have to mess with epoxies. Just depends on what you want out of your rifle.

Hope this helps-Tim

Doesn't the services use Remingtons for their long range rifles? other than the 50 cal. Maybe they have a spare stock that could be procured..........

oh believe me if i came across a stock id procure it, but uh so far just few of the bipods and some other  random items that don't really apply here.
in any case that stock is meant for a heavy barrel not the standard.
i got quite a while to figure out a stock to buy
