survivalshop Posted June 11, 2011 Report Share Posted June 11, 2011 I saw that stuff the other day .The 700 rec. intrest me , but I have to put a grand into my Ultra Classic first & they will probably be gone by the time I has the cash.I'm not sure I like that fancy receiver & hand guard set up .Looks like it would make the 700 as heavy as my 20",308, AR.

Jgun Posted June 11, 2011 Report Share Posted June 11, 2011 So Imschur, are you going to be the first one to build a bolt gun on this, or do you plan to apply peer pressure on 98Z5V to do it?. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edgecrusher Posted June 11, 2011 Report Share Posted June 11, 2011 :o, I believe a challenge. Has been issues <lmao> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imschur Posted June 12, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 12, 2011 This project has 98Z5V written all over it in FDE of course. <munch> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
98Z5V Posted June 12, 2011 Report Share Posted June 12, 2011 This project has 98Z5V written all over it in FDE of course. <munch>Well, today after work I hauled ass to my favorite FFL, just to pick up some ammo for my Sunday-Monday shootfest (helmet-cam footage to follow, through the river wash... ;D). Lo and Behold, before my very eyes, they have the Barrett 98B sitting there. For $4,250. I can get it from them for less. Oh, it's .338 Lapua Magnum, too - I didn't mention thaat yet.So, before I walked in there, having already known where this thread was gonna go, I was convinced that I'm building a 700 bolt on this chassis. It wasn't gonna be a .308 Win 700, either. :oSo, guys, whaddya want me to do here? Build this 700 chassis, or let it get in the way of the Barrett 98B .338 LM? <dontknow>Tell me where I'm going here, ya bunch of rat-bastage instigators... <munch> <laughs> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edgecrusher Posted June 12, 2011 Report Share Posted June 12, 2011 Lapua. There, I said it. I want one t :sniper: :sniper:, although I like predator customs rifle in the accuracy international chassis. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imschur Posted June 12, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 12, 2011 Well I think that chassis only works with short action 700. Might as well get the most expensive item now. Everything else will seem like a deal going forward. <laughs> So now for the truth, you bought it already didnt you <munch> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
98Z5V Posted June 12, 2011 Report Share Posted June 12, 2011 So now for the truth, you bought it already didnt you <munch>I did hand them a quarter of the thing. :-[Right then. :oI was only going in there for ammo, man... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imschur Posted June 12, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 12, 2011 Doing your part for the economy..THATS THE SPIRIT <thumbsup> When do you pick it up :banana: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imschur Posted June 12, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 12, 2011 FWIW the most a box of ammo cost me was a Colt Gold Cup. Whats that like 6 boxes of Lapua branded .338LM ammo. What did you trade in? <munch> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
98Z5V Posted June 12, 2011 Report Share Posted June 12, 2011 When do you pick it up :banana:About $3,500 from now... :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
98Z5V Posted June 12, 2011 Report Share Posted June 12, 2011 What did you trade in? <munch>Not a damn thing - I don't believe in getting rid of firearms I already own... ;DI'd give him a motorcycle or two, though... <laughs> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jgun Posted June 13, 2011 Report Share Posted June 13, 2011 WOW!!!!! That is impressive. I can't even imagine feeding that thing, I have trouble keeping up with my "little" guns as it is. Good luck with it. By the way Have you ever considered a Dillon Aero? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
