REM 700 Titanium finally done!!!!

[blacktailslayer]

I finally got my Rem 700 Titanium completed how I want it!!! Just need to go sight it in. Weighs 6lbs 5oz as you see it(without bipod). This is Rembo's "old" gun he built.
SPECS:
Rem 700 Titanium action(old style)
PacNor supermatch barrel(23") in lightweight contour chambered in 7mm-08 AI
Gretan firing pin assembly
Rem trigger set at 2.5 lbs
Wildcat composite ultra light stock, bedded.
Stock hydro dipped by Cobra Imaging.
Williams BDL bottom metal
Talley lightweight rings(low) with a VX3 4.5-15x40 Duplex
Leupold Alumina flip covers
Harris ultralight bipod
I would like to mention what great service I received from Cobra Imaging. They were fantastic to deal with and their work is impeccable!!

Good stuff, looks great! Only thing I would do is turn both those rings around, and get a longer rear action screw.

How much does the stock alone weigh?

 

[blacktailslayer]

Action screw

I may just have to get a longer rear action screw. The Williams bottom metal is a lot thicker and way better built than the stock one. The screw isn't going in as far as it was with the factory one.

pretty stick you got there ...

Stock

I weighed the stock as 18.5oz. with swivel studs.

 

[Rembo]

I want it back......now

Rembo

Sorry Rick, the wife asked me if I wanted to keep the dipping invoice for the stock. I said "why???", she says "in case you want to sell it someday". I said "I'll be dead first!!!"

 

[ben hunchak]

Nice rifle! The action would be my pick as well for a light weight carry rifle!!

Gretan firing pin assembly
Rem trigger set at 2.5 lbs

But I don't believe it

 

[blacktailslayer]

Weight

It is 6lbs 5oz without the bipod.

 

[crazy_davey]

It is 6lbs 5oz without the bipod.

That makes a bit more sense (Nice Edit)

 

[308BAR]

Pure Awesome! Nice hunting rig.

 

[bassman]

looks great, wish they were available in LH

What's the deal with the tang area- there seems to be a small white gap showing under the end of the tang?

 

[SuperCub]

Nice rifle. You could lose another 1/4lb by swapping out the scope for a Leupold FX-II 4x fixed.

I put one on my 700 270Win/Edge and it came in at 6lb 11oz.
