I bought this rifle from 338REM, in hopes to make a 7mm/300WM wildcat, and have decided this project is not making enough progress to keep the rifle. I took delivery and decided to polish the crown, and also in messing with it I felt a little hiccup when sliding the bolt home and corrected this with some light filing on the bolt plug, or shroud, now smooth as butter. I also disassembled the factory trigger and polished the internals to a very desirable outcome. I have not shot this fine earlier vintage rifle. It still wears the black synthetic stock. I was given a super deal on the rifle and will pass this on. $475.00 delivered. Tim.
