REMINGTON  CUSTOM  RIFLES

As part of our reorganisation for 2024 we have decided that we need to reduce our workload although if we are honest recent events since the pandemic have helped us out quite a lot by generally cutting back on sales all round! 🙄   We remain best known for our rimfire rifles therefore it makes a great deal of sense to us that we concentrate very much on this aspect of our work, especially bearing in mind we have recently taken possession of a further 75 Rimfire Magic receivers plus the same number of our Match bolts.

However we still have in the workshop around fifteen brand new Remington 700 receivers with bolts which Roger has been using to prepare custom rifles. As time permits these will be used to build custom rifles which will be posted on this website.

WHAT ABOUT STOCKS …..?

This is where things start to get more interesting as we now come to the area of semi-custom rifles where personal preference reigns supreme …. the choice of stock! We feel there are very few stocks on the market for Rem 700 rifles which are not particularly good, in fact some of the budget brands eg Choate and Bell & Carlson may not always reach the heights of aesthetic beauty but they are still a very good choice when it comes to functionality and economy. So if you are on a tight budget this is an area where savings may be made. Let’s face it if one’s personal financial status improves you can always update the stock fairly simply at any future time if you wish to do so. However, we feel that the most important aspect of any stock is the inclusion of some means of bedding, whereby the barrelled action may be securely retained in the stock by allowing the two action screws to remain tightly held in the stock by at least a pair of pillars or preferably the inclusion of a solid aluminium bedding block in the stock.  This we feel is the ideal and the ultimate is probably the use of an exclusively metal chassis system.  If the barrelled action is properly set by one of these methods long term accuracy is virtually assured! After that it all comes down to comfort and our belief has always been that if you feel comfortable shooting with a particular stock then you will almost certainly shoot better and more consistently which also means that your shooting should be more enjoyable too ….. which is surely what it’s all about after all!

HERE’S A FEW WE MADE EARLIER …..

There are far too many permutations and combinations of Remington 700 barrelled actions and stocks to be able to illustrate them all here but we thought it may help or give you one or two ideas of a semi-custom Rem 700 rifle you might wish to consider if you are currently in the market for one of these rifles.  We usually have one or two on display in our shop for you to handle and take a look at but we will always try to dummy any combination of barrelled action and stock for you to look at when you call.  Meanwhile here are some examples of the most popular stocks we use for you to see …….
