I just saw Guntech's post and figured I'd post some pics of two rem 700's I have completed recently.

This one is a trued up long action in 6.5/284 with a 28" Bartlein barrel and a Shrewd varmint brake on the end. The stock is an H-S slightly modified around the grip. The bolt handle is a custom deal I made. Tunned up the rem trigger for now and will install a Rifle Basics or a Jewel once I get some more cash to spend on it. I just finished the dura-coat today and got her back together a few hours ago. With any luck I'll see how she shoots tomorrow.

In front is a pic of a 308 I built back in April for the Edmonton sniper shoot. Same sort of thing as the 6.5/284 but it also has a Badger AI mag conversion and a Rifle Basics trigger. Shoots very nice!!! (for a 308:redface:)

I'm waiting for my wife to get one of the kids back to sleep so I took a quick picture for you.

I used devcon to blend it in with the rest of the handle and it worked good but when I blasted it before painting the texture of the decon changed an I didn't notice. Piss me off! now you can see the blend material but it doesn't look too bad so I didn't bother fixing it.

I have tried a few different styles now but I sure like this one. Easy to make, feels good and looks not bad.

Job well done, rifle looks great and i bet its a blast to shoot! That bolt handle looks good too. Definitely a nice touch.
 
I have seen these guns and they are sweet oh so sweet.

Funny how the offer of "hey, want to try it" never comes up tho';)

Remember my friend, you will be cursed with violent hemorrhoids if you don't help others with their projects.

Whenever you have the time, I'm in!!!! :sniper:
