Any one know where to buy these? Plan on putting it into a KRG bravo per the advice of another member. I have a rifle at dicks that could be a donor rifle but would it be more cost effective to just find the barreled action alone and drop it in? Thanks in advance for any replies.
 
I’ll check those out man, thanks for checking and the info!
What are you looking for (caliber, bbl length, twist rate, threaded muzzle?)?

If you’re not set on Remington, brownells has Howa barreled actions and you can also get a KRG bravo for those, too. If you were looking at donor actions from Dick’s, I’m thinking you want to keep the price low and this would do it. I don’t have any experience with Howa personally but a lot of people have shown that they shoot well

6.5cm, 22-24”, not sure about twist yet(open to suggestion), and yes on the threaded muzzle. I’m looking at NSS as per the recommendation earlier in the thread and it seems like they have the hybrid remage barrels that mate to their actions. Seems like a good deal, id just need to wait another month or so till I get it.
 
I had a model 700 trued and put a Bartlein barrel on it to save some money. Hindsight has me wishing I’d gone with a custom action to start with because you WILL want extra features eventually, side bolt release, bolt knob, etc...

I can have a fully tuned n barreled M700 quicker than just about anyone.
