Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Gunsmithing Just Finished Building My 222 Remington

I had a Left Hand 700 in 22-250 Ack and decided it was to heavy to fool with , so decide to change it to 222 Remington. I traded the 308 Bolt to one of the forum members for his 223 bolt. The barrel on the 22-250 was a Number 7 McMillan 27 inch's long . I cut 2.5 inch off the rear of the barrel which got rid of 22-250 Ack chamber . I lapped the new bolt into the action, then cut a new tenon then threaded and chambered for the 222 Remington. After polishing the barrel i cut the barrel to 22 inch's and crowned with a recessed target crown. I skimmed bedded the action in the HS Precision Police Tactical Stock . The trigger is the Shilen 2 oz. I loaded up two different loads to try tomorrow. Here is the finished produce with Leupold 4.5x14 30 mm Tactical Scope. It should Tack Drive. I hope. I switch out the J-Lock firing pin assembly to a Gre-Tan
