Looking for a 700 bolt?

[SuperCub]

I'm looking for a bolt or bolt body for a 700 short action (308).

Any one with tips or advice?

WGP won't sell me one because it needs to be headspaced by a gsmith. Kind of ironic, cuz it's for and action that will be headspaced anyways when the bbl goes one.

Dave Kiff, pacific tool and gauge makes a fancy bolt for the 700.

Friggin' things are pricey. Gunparts, if and when they have any bolts, wants $149.30US for one. The model matters too. Model as in ADL, BDL, etc.
You should be able to get one from a Remington Repair center. The closest Remington Authotrized Repair Centre to you is:
Complete Gunsmithing
71 O'Leary avenue
St-Johns, NF
A1B, 2C9
(709) 738-6310

David Tubbs sells a beautiful 700 bolt, spiral fluting included. I can't remember the exact cost however it was over $300US.

you will not be able to buy a bolt from any registered Remington Warranty depot Canadian or U.S. dealers .

Yes, they certainly are.

I missed a factory bolt on the EE a couple weeks ago cuz the seller was slack about answering his PMs.

They quoted me almost $300 for a bolt body.

I passed.

Yeah, they are a PITA when it comes to anything like this. Worried about getting sued I suppose, should anything go wrong. Pretty annoying for the rest of us, at the least. Let me know how it turns out, I've been looking for a couple of Rem 600/660/XP100 bolts for yet another switch barrel project. - dan

I can hook you up with a bolt should you still need it, let me know.
