GunBoy, they aren't just copying the 700 action, they are building a modified 700 action with extremely tight tolerances.
Now if I could buy a tight tolerance 700 action from Remington I would, But the fact is I can't because Remington builds production rifles, so we have a +- 0.002 run out on the barrel threads, or a +-0.003 misalignment on the bolt lugs, or other less than ideal machining because its impossible for Remington to make any money building a high tolerance action.
Now from what the guys at ATR have said is they want to be on the same level as Nesika, so we are talking +-0.0002 or less run out on the barrel threads, etc.
Now that being said ATR hurry up I want see these actions
