Wormie Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 I'm looking to buy a new bolt gun and I have been looking at the Remington 700 ADL. Unfortunately, I don't like that there isn't a detachable box magazine. Would I be able to purchase a Remington 700 BDL stock and move the Remington 700 ADL action onto it? Of course then I would purchase a box magazine. My purpose for this rifle is for target shooting as well as hunting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smallbore Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 I just purchased an ADL from Academy for $379. Then you can get the Magpul hunter 700 for $250 and the detachable magazine and kit for $40-$50. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dirty Rod Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 You can just change the stock but why not buy the BDL? Another option is to look at a conversion kit if you go with the ADL. Years ago I sent my stock to CDI precision and they converted it to use AI .308 mags. Very good option if you don't to do it yourself. If you go that route I would definitely invest in a better stock versus converting the factory stock. Just my suggestion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kellymc Posted March 25, 2016 Share Posted March 25, 2016 (edited) May be hard to believe but the new Remington Long Range 30.06 loaded with 190gr Nosler Competition bullet and 52.5gr of 4360 is capable of placing 5 shots in .239. The rifle did have the recoil lug bedded before firing. Re read the OP and I guess this would to heavy for hunting.
