Remington xp100 action

You can make anything that shoots a cartridge based on the 223 case with what you have. Rem 700 bbls thread right in. Stocks are different, but not that tough to get (and you already have a couple). I've done a couple of these (still have a multi bbl, multi bolt version coming together) and they turn out pretty decent. Only downside is that the CFC circus doesn't want to reclassify them as rifles anymore (they did my first one, refused my second). As to worth, less then a 700, more then a Stevens. - dan
Bill, as usual, is correct. - dan
Asked and answered, but I have an F-CLass gun built on an XP-100 action. It is a 22 pound single shot bolt actioned PISTOL. It means you cannot legally shoot them anywhere but an authorized range and they are subject to an ATT.
I am also not very happy about the fact that the rear action screw goes from inside the action- down. If you need to torque your action, you have to take your scope (and one-piece base) off.
they are very nice, but I would opt for an XR-100 action over an XP-100 action any day. Not worth the hassles in my estimation.

You can just change the bolt handle, the same as on a 700 (they are silver soldered on). - dan
In the old days, it was common for xp-100's to be de-registered and used to build rifles. I don't know what the ramifications might be to using one of these de-registered XP's. I would assume that once de-registered they could now be registered as a rifle. In truth, I don't really care! Regards, Bill.
