A great platform to build a better rifle from.Good starter gun.Will shoot 3/4 with match ammo.Its long throated from the factory.Needs bedding and a trigger job for sure.

What Longshot sdaid, but they will shoot under 1/2 moa pretty easily when properly bedded and the trigger reworked. We sell alot of them to LE agencies after they are set up, and have yet to have 1 not shoot very well.

Good rifle, fairly accurate out of the box, need a trigger job for sure. Definitley gets a thumbs up.

Very nice rifle..... shoots very tight groups out of the box. Only complaint I have is the trigger pull is very heavy, probaly about 9.5 pounds. Not too hard to get used too, even at that weight.If I new how to post photos I would show examples of some of the groups I have shot. They are as good as custom build rifle I have seen the groups of.

It's now known as the Remington 700P (Police), probably for politically correct reasons. Look up some reviews on google, the majority of them are good except for the odd guy who write a bad review because he expected a $10 000 match rifle.

I thought the 700P came with an aluminum bedding job.

It does, but to obtain maximum accuracy a glass bedding job is needed, as I'm told.

The 700P action is set on aluminum bedding blocks, but you have to remember that these blocks are made print, within acceptable tolerances.If you want to acheive maximum accuracy, you should bed the action.

What is a ball park figure for a trigger job - on a 700P?

 

[ceriksson]

The charge i've been given for one place is $40.00 not too expensive at all.

 

[TheCanuck]

ive been given the same price

I am going to bed mine, but first I want some work done to the trigger - way to hard.
