Help Please - Remington 700 BDL to ADL Conversion

I've got a Remington 700 Stainless Steel, long action, BDL and have bought a new ADL stock.

What components can be reused, what other parts will I need?

Thanks in advance.

The spring and follower will work. You need a mag box and a triggerguard. I also believe there is a tiny screw that holds the mag box in place.

Thanks.

Does the BDL have the tapped hole for the small screw that holds the mag box?

Will I need new screws to hold the stock to the action?

Where would you buy this "small" stuff?

BDL spring will work. Get a trigger guard and mag box+retainer screw.

The BDL spring will work. The only difference is a tiny kink in the bottom of the spring to ride smoothly on the bottom of the mag well.

You need:

ADL box
ADL magazine tab screw
ADL trigger guard
ADL centre action screw

The action will be tapped ready to go to ADL, they are generic.
