Rem 700 or tikka t3 action

[Eddie Gunks]

MDT used to sell blemished products but I haven’t seen blemish products in a while on their site. I have a h3s chassis and their skeleton stock that I bought as a blemish.

how do you like that chassis and stock?

Haven’t finished the rifle yet. It started as a Remington sps varmint 308. Just getting rid of the crappy stock has made this rifle more balanced. It was really front heavy before. I do like this chassis but I haven’t handled many.

I like the rpr just cause it takes ar308 pmags.

Cheaper mags with more firepower.

I gotta go with the 700, there is just so much for it on the aftermarket. I love my Tikka but as I posted about before it just doesn't have the aftermarket support.

IMO build a 700 from scratch. Aftermarket everything even the receiver. It's what I would do if I had to build another rifle.

XLR industries makes good stuff. I have my 700 in their evolution chassis.

Ok. Follow up.

I went wiyh a rem 700 barreled action cause the deal was too good to pass up.

Added a cadex chassis for the same reason.

Atlas bipod.

Thunder beast 30 cal. Lightweight can.

Crappy vortex just for fun. I lent my good optic to my buddy.

Too bad i leave in two days!

[Eddie Gunks]

243

How heavy did it end up? I'm still unsure if I want a chassis or nice stock.

The chassis is not that heavy. 4-5 pounds i guess. The barreled action has some weight to it.

14.1 pounds with bipod, empty 10 round mag, and the optic. No can.

Not bad really.

I just shipped an LSS chassis. It was pretty light. No stock.....it takes ar stocks so the sky is the limit.

I have quiet a few pistols and gas guns before I get another bolt action. I might spruce up my savage at some point.
