Seems like a short action Remington 700 action is a little tough to find, and if you do find one it's pushing $600. Inflation hits everything.
Brownells still had some but now I see they are gone.
Installing a Criterion barrel onto a Remington is stupid easy and shoots really good, I've done it before so that's the plan again.
So who has 700 receivers in stock? And maybe for not stupid money? 223 bolt face.
Thanks in advance
 
They don't do .223 bolt face
Maybe you should sue for false advertising then 🙄🤦🏼‍♂️

Not today , no .223 in stock .
You could say that about every manufacturer at some point, nobody has everything, all the time. You used to wait a year for a mack bros, then they’d ship 25 to a vendor, and they’d be gone before lunch, starting the clock over. Ive purchased six of them now in the last 6 months from Mack. .308’s were in stock for months up until a few weeks ago. The mag bolt face and .223 actions are set to be available in 30 days per Mack.

Pawn shops, local gun stores, small town gun shops that trade in used guns…

I hav

I've seen both of these. Midwest wants over $600 and JA looks like you have to buy all the pieces, putting it over $600.
 
Evo vs. Origin? Yes I know there's about 3 bills difference. Is the origin 300ish better? And since someone up thread suggested origin it's not really a threadjacking.
 
Ok, that looks like a lot of value. I'm going to get in touch with them and try to get on a list.
Yeah, a basic adl would set you back about 600.
If you want to go this route, I can true the action for you. It would cost you a six pack of shiner bock in bottles. I've sent my tools to my brother and won't have them back till February

Origins are obtainable. Evos are like Bigfoot sightings. They happen, but never when I'm looking. Or a Tenacity.
All actions are rare right now. Defiance isn't taking orders. Evos are vapor ware. Origins seem to pop up more often.

I saw 700s for sale cheap at the last gunshot I went to. NoS 223 adl varmints like 499.
