That Model 70 was custom built on a factory barreled action. It was inherited by me in 1976 from a family member who had it built just a few years earlier. I don't think it had even a full box of 20 rounds shot through it, only a few more (my handloads) since.

Beautiful rig. Would you mind sharing the build details like the stock, barrel (lenth, profile, twist), etc?

Went into town to meet up with a buddy then stopped into a shop on the way back, this 1943 Remington M1903A3 followed me back home.

I don't think it's all original and the shop owner admitted that the stock was refinished, but the receiver, barrel (which is dark but still has nice rifling) and most of the small components are all stamped with the Remington 'R'. I don't think I did terrible for just under 1k in today's milsurp market.

Picked up this 2012 production 22" Remington 700 ADL with factory irons in .30-06 Springfield from a pawn shop. I'm kind of a sucker for bolt guns with irons and I've been wanting a shorter synthetic stock rifle.

Did end up having to replace the factory trigger guard due to an overlooked crack I found in it. Fortunately Keystone Sporting Arms makes an anodized aluminum one that looks pretty close to the factory trigger guard.

Put a set of Leupold bases on it with a set of Vortex Hunter 1" rings and a Vortex Diamondback 3-9x40 BDC. I'm thinking about working up a 180 grain reload for this rifle instead of my usual 165 grain soft points I use in my M1, M1A and 1903 Springfield rifles.
