Remington 700 BDL 223AI (built my ME)

My Remington 700 223 AI

I built this gun… I did all the work myself except for the rechambering. I had the 223 rechambered using the same reamer as the Super Gun so both fireform the same into 223AI.

Remington 700 BDL all stainless
1-12 twist Rem barrel shortened 1/2″ and re-chambered by Stick at S & S Precision.
Old Rem trigger set to 1lbs by me.
Zero Laminated tactical stock finished by me.
Cordovan shoe dye for stock color (same I used to use on M-1 Garands)
Minwax poly clear spray can (this stuff is great really). Wet sanded and buffed about 12 years ago (still looks good huh?)
Action fully bedded into stock by me with JB Weld (great for bedding BTW)
B & L Elite 4200 6-24 varmint scope with Leupold rings and EGW 0 MOA base.

Nice rifle sir. How does she shoot?

Honestly??? He shoots OK. Maybe around 1/2 inch. Never been a super tight shooter. It really needs a better barrel and a Jewel trigger, but I use it for friends to just burn up rounds... In other words he's a fun gun. I will say that we did a have a heck of a day shooting turkey sized steel silhouettes at 400 yards and I was head shooting them one right after another.

My froend Candi called it "her gun" until she shot the Frankengun AR-15... not THAT'S "her gun"... haha
