Remington custom shop barreled actions. $400

[Bgriffith]

The first few adds had a drop down menu that allowed you to proceed with no selection at all. As soon as they marked them “down” to $350 it forced you to make a selection regarding your bolt, and the only option that did not cost extra literally said “no bolt”. If you can’t figure out how that’s gonna work out, you’re dense. There was no gamble. They spelled it out for you….”no bolt”.

I bought one when the description was hazier and the drop down menu did not force any selections, and I bought one after, and I selected the “bolt of PT&G’s choice” option.

In fact it still says: again barreled action not barreled receiver what they say when they are telling you it “DOES NOT COME with a bolt…” RECEIVER ONLY “

See how the drop down menu says “no bolt”??? What exactly do you think that means?

In the earlier iterations there was no “no bolt” option. I believe if you did not click the drop down menu, it said “no selection”, and allowed you to continue.

Oh good, we will get to see how all your gents fair. Good luck!

Hopefully “keep factory” means there’s a bolt

I guess I just don't get it. You can buy a complete Remington 700 ADL at Wally world for under $400.00. Why would you pay $400.00 for an action without a bolt?

You can? Stainless steel? I haven’t seen anything Remington at Wally World for a long time around here seems all they sell is savage and the ruger Americans. If that any more.

Billings scheels had ADL combos with cheapy scope for $550ish week or 2 ago, i will look at wally next time but i agree with shotbrownelk about price point. I know our local gunshop sells used beat up 700s for donors around $300-350 but they sell fast (lots of longrange guys here), i just buy a accurate quality clone (kelbly was last). For a project i understand the risk, i just dont see any savings across all of these orders but it is fun to watch. I have been following this tread like its a tag just waiting to see who draws what.... good luck with it boys

For me it was popular calibers that I can flip, my smith charges 70 to finish chamber. I can do that and do some quick load development to show they are shooters and send them on their way once I’m bored.

If they come complete with a custom shop bottom metal as the advertisement once said it should be a easy sell.

I’m still waiting to see that Rem 700 ADL in 338 Lapua….

I bought one for the action as $400 for stainless action is a good deal anymore. Other one was in a caliber that I’d have had to pay $1000+ to get one in a Remington in it

I thought I saw some stainless 7s in 6mm a week ago. Paralysis by analysis.

You might have. For me the closest scheels is 3.5hours one way so I’m still money ahead

I meant on the pdf from ptd. I don’t need one, and when I scratch the 6mm itch, I’m gonna be looking for a #1. I hope.

That 06 was tempting, hopefully you get lucky with it!

Man the last 6mm Rem I saw was an old 77 flat bolt… it’s now sitting in my safe. My wife kinda fell in love with it… it’s hers now lol

You are correct! Complete Rem 700 for under $400 at almost every Wally World that sells guns.
