Of all the 700 clone choices on the market, Echols selected the SS Borden for his daughters rifle.
and Mr Borden will tell you- that the only thing with Ti Bordens, is they are not as smooth as the SS ones,
simply because of the metallurgical nature of Titanium.


However some form of modern hard-coating like DLC over titanium , will deliver a much better coefficient of friction
on bearing surfaces, even better than SS. ...DLC has one of the lowest co-efficient of friction ratings.

But me, based on smoothness level of the rem700 Ti, could quite easily live with uncoated Ti no problem.
