Any Old Remington Employees Here, or Smiths Experienced On the Remington 700?

Having an issue with feeding from two Rem 700's both in 6.5 Creed. They were perfect before getting pillar bedded. So now they both shoot fantastic, but dont feed worth a dam. They aways pass the hand feeding dummies test, but on the range is ALWAYS a whole other story; must be the recoil that does something.
The only thing I could find was that after they were bedded, the blind magazine box kinda had some vertical play in it. Noticed that when I took the action out of the stock and bolted the bottom metal back up to it to see how it looked assembled. Noticed the action screws were now too long and would interfere with the bolt. I asked myself how could this be? If this is mated perfectly without the stock, how are the screws too long?
Now I see - the assembled (in the stock) rifle is longer (taller) inside the stock than it is without. So then after it was all back together again and with the floor plate open, I could stick my hand in there and slide the mag box up and down about four millimeters. This to me didnt seem right but I was told by someone there was indeed supposed to be that play in there.
While looking at the mag box, spring and follower design, I noticed the blued steel mag box was different than the stainless model I have. And they're both different than the ones you see on Ebay that have the little tab or eye on back of the box, where I think you can screw this box down to the action.
1. This box that can be screwed down to the action; it seems older. Is it? Was this discontinued? What was it for originally?
2. My stainless mag box has what appear to be laser cuts in it, and the folds to act like feed lips are more aggressive (closer) Why did the design change? Or was one meant for the 308 and the other a 6.5 creed? I dont know. Was it just a product improvement/change proposal over the years?

‘Entry level Rifle Setup’

Looking to dip my toes into the bolt gun world after spending all of my time in the AR world. Looking for viable options under $3k that can either be built or turnkeyed from a reputable company.

So far I’ve got the list of turnkey rifles at:
- MPA Matrix Pro PMR
- Aero Solus Competition
- Seekins Havak HIT Pro M3
- Tikka T3X Ace Target

All would be in 6.5 Creedmoor as I’ve got 2 AR10’s already chambered in that round, and good factory ammo is readily available.

I’m currently leaning towards the Seekins because of the quick change barrel option, but I’ve heard there are issues with the HIT taking pre-fits if I ever wanted to change calibers or upgrade barrels.

Are there other options I should be considering? Is it worth looking to assemble a rifle with a $3k budget?

The spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak......

Making a table for the wife lately and Saturday, I did what we are never supposed to do. No gloves on, I was pulling a 6' board through my table saw and I found the blade....

My safety glasses had dust all over them and I just couldn't see the blade that well I guess. my wife was helping catch the boards and watched me do it too and she also said that she didn't think I was that close to it. Yes, I kept working and got all of them ready to join because I'm a man.

Of course this is just one of many accidents. I once caught a metal chuck that came off my lathe with my freaking bear hand (just a reaction to save it from hitting my lathe bed)and had a steel splinter inside my palm for a few days before realizing why it kept hurting so bad. i got it out with a magnet.

Mashed off the end of my left thumb between gears or a flywheel and starter on a log splitter when I was 17, and I've cut myself many times.

So what are the coolest injuries yall have done? Must provide pics or it didn't happen!!!

table and finger for proof

23andMe up for Sale

I been looking to see if anyone would Post this up because it been bugging me ever since I read about it last week. Nobody looks to have so ...

I always considered the idea that the industry was likely seed moneyed-$ Gov./Agency Front brick and mortar Setup ever since the fad started, and always spun my head like the exorcist that millions of people wound freely line-up and just give away the ONLY thing they truly own, thae one thing that takes a Courts Oder to take from you. Giving away their DNA and their complete families DNA linage to be industrial banked. All for just 20 minutes of pop culture amusement in reading the results.

Anyway... Bankruptcy, 23andMe up for Sale with millions of peoples DNA results to be sold off .

I'll have a triple scoop of irony with some irony on top, served in an irony cone!!!


The longer you read, the funnier it gets... rapper Young Scooter? Not getting any older? On his birthday? Scooting from police? When he jumps a fence, breaks his leg (while scooting) and dies suddenly?

Betting that if they'd opened the door and turned the stereo down... he'd be alive today!!!

Always thought he did a great version of "At the Hop!"

And if he had learned to hop... he'd also be alive today!

I'll have my irony "To go." Like, out the back door. Doing an impression of Jesse Owens! Who, for the record, was a runner though won gold in the Long Jump. See, if Little had been a pole vaulter or a hurdler... he'd also be alive today.

Neck Tension Inconsistencies on Lapua 6.5CM Brass

I cant for the life of me figure out why I have so much inconsistency in neck tension with this brass. This is 2 times fired brass in the same chamber (howa), annealead with an AMP, then sized through a forster full length sizer with 262 ball. All necks brushed with graphite and bodies lubed with die wax before sizing. I see the inconsistency with my mandrel checker, and in the arm of the arbor press while seating. What is changing so much that I cant see, that is affecting this neck tension?

How are things at MPA?

I ordered a Vanquish the first week of Feb 2025. In the past, I received the build sheet within a couple of weeks of placing the order. For this order - nothing yet. I asked about the build sheet in Late Feb, and was told:
"You will receive it by the end of the week at the latest. (( OP:End of the week would have been Feb))
We have had some key members out sick this month and are a bit behind. Your order date will stay the same so this has not delayed the process time I promise".
Nothing yet. I'm still inclined to believe the "Your order date will stay the same". Just wondering. Every now and then one will pop up for sale. I'm wondering if I should just cancel the order, buy used. At the end of the day, I'm not sweating either way. Just curious.
