Nice work! I did this years ago to an old Remington 700 ADL I have, as well as to a Remington 700 Mountain Rifle, which I no longer have. For those of you who are afraid of doing it, it was a piece of cake. I didn't do my tang though; only the recoil lug area and around the base of the barrel. The fit is so perfect now that I didn't see any reason to do the tang, too. The gun will now put three in a half-inch or better at 100 yards with several factory ammo choices, including the typical Remington green box stuff. Very happy I did it!
