I have an M700 in 7x57 made in 1981, wonderful rifle. I have an M700 VSSF in 308, a tack driver from the mid 90's. Then I have a new M700 223 ADL, PIECE OF CRAP!!
I know a gunsmith who builds custom rifles. He says if the action was made in 2010 or later he will not blueprint it. That far off. He says he's seem bolts where one side of the lugs was not in contact at all. He said he's seen threads in the reciver that looked like the were cobbled in with a file. And he says those threads will be off from being in line with the bolt.
