Howdy,
Looooong time lurker. I'm getting ahold of a Manners T4A mini chassis and want to drop in an R700 barreled action and get shooting. Where is the best place to get ahold of one? I've seen a couple rifles between 600-700$ from the factory I might take the stock off strip the BA out of, but aside from those it doesn't seem there are any available anywhere. This is a bit of a budget build and I'm looking at sub $900 for a barreled action here. FWIW (sorry Frank, unable to post WTS items also means WTB isn't able to be done unfortunately) if someone has one they're looking to offload I'd gladly take a look at that as well.
So far it looks like the 22" SPS BA or stripping the 24" out of the model with the H&S precision stock and reselling the stock I guess is the route to go without going custom yet unless there's something out there floating on here. I recall you used to be able to call Remington and buy a BA directly from them, but don't know if that's a thing anymore.
