Photos My first Bolt action, Remington 700

[Aguelzo89]

I have finally built my first Bolt gun. Remington 700 SPS Tactical. Being my first Bolt gun, this seemed appropriate.
As I say "build", i mean mods I've done and added, no aftermarket barrel or actions all stock.

EGW 20 moa rail
Vortex tactical rings
PA 4x14 FFP RGrid
HS Precision PSS
Airtech limbsaver
4lbs lead shot added to stock
Homemade cheekriser
Had the barrel threaded
Pierson 5 port muzzle brake

Nice setup for your first “incursion’’ into the world of bolt guns. Much nicer then my first rifle. You will see how addictive this is....more to come soon I am sure. Good luck in your quest.

Very nice man! And you will surprised how well that thing will shoot with some good ammo. Like Cat64 said, much nicer than my 1st set up. Now get out there and start burning out that barrel! Lol

All you need is a trigger.

I accually have a timney 510 trig In her. But to be honest, not impressed lol.

Thanks for the encouraging words. It's been fun I can say. I'm already planning my first custom build. But it's gonna be a bit. Working on fundamentals this year.

Triggertech special, you won’t be disappointed. Excellent trigger for the money!

I will definitely check it out. If i get one, it's gonna be for my next build. Like I said before, for how i have my setup, it's all fundamentals.

Very nice start. My Rem 700 5r Magpul Edition shoots amazing. It was my 2nd bolt gun to-date. It’s sub .75 MOA all day with a crappy shot like me!

Here’s mine... only changes are the Timney Calvin trigger, MRO break, Vortex PST Gen 2, and Harris bipod. Changing out the stock next.

The trigger is definitely the next place to start! Good luck.
