I greatly enjoyed this video (and this series), HR, and I have also enjoyed experiencing your sequential enhancements to the factory 700. Without the slightest doubt, you have converted it into a FAR more accurate and FAR more customized - and therefore a FAR more satisfying - .308. I am sure the pleasure of upgrading this rifle will last forever.
Thanks Roy. It's been fun and I'm looking forward to testing it with more types of ammunition and maybe even some other components.
I always appreciate things I built a little more than things I buy that are complete. Nice rifle, Sir.
Thank you!
I think a Howa 1500 barreled action from Brownells and a krg bravo chassis would be a better and more cost effective build.
I did find this video really interesting. Thank you for your hard work and good content.
HRF, that's a new one to me. Great build Chief
Thanks!
I really enjoyed this series HR, you’ve turned a factory rifle into a much more accurate and a much more shootable platform. It looks great and at under 1500.00 I think it’s a good value. Enjoy your 700 HRF, looking forward to seeing more of it in future videos.
Thank you!
Good morning, HRFUNK and family. Happy Hump Day to you all there. This is a Cool build. Yes, I think now after I installed a muzzle break on my RIA VR80 shotgun. They work. I did what mark Leeber at A3G munitions told me to do if I'm a right handed shooter witch is clock the muzzle break to the 1 o'clock position. That also made I difference when running the shotgun fast. Then it'll be opposite if your a left handed shooter. Clock the muzzle break to the 11 o'clock position. That's for shotguns. Thought I'd share that information with you. Love this rifle build. Look forward to the range day video. My Springfield M1A socom 16 is shooting 💪👌. Just went over 400 rounds now. 0, issues. Fine! Rifle.
Thank you for calling it a muzzle brake and not a flash hider. So many times in videos individuals call them flash hiders. Thank you also pointing out the Leupold scope rings. I use a Leupold scope and these rings on my accurized M1A and like them very much.
i really enjoyed this series!
Another excellent video series!
Good morning HR. Looks like the project ended well and the rifle shoots nice tight groups. Customizing to fit your preferences may not be cheaper, but it is part of the fun.
No Chewy in this video. He got a large response last time. He could be a positive addition.There's a pet groomer with with over 2 million subscribers, but she is cuter than you.😂
Ha, ha! Cuter always helps!
Great video and series on the 700 Rem. Enjoyed it emencely...
Great Job ! Color Coordinated !!
Thanks for taking the time, and making the effort, to produce this series of 'detailed' videos on your 700 'build'. Very well done and informative.
I am about to embark on the same upgrades/modifications 'adventure' for a 700 SPS Varmint in 223 that I have had sitting in my safe unused for far too long (10+ years). I just did not like the 'out of the box' version that much, and thought that one day I will do some upgrades to it. Well, thanks to your series of videos that 'day' has come! Your choices, and rationale for making them, addressed all of my 'out of the box' concerns.
Many thanks
You're welcome. Let me know how yours turns out.
HR I joined the party late nice looking set up. I like FAB Defense products. I have the AR stock that holds a magazine. Two is one one is none .I have it on my 224 Valkyrie .
I've got the same stock on my SBR. I like the spare mag as an emergency back-up.
@@hrfunk I know you do. I watched your video about it. I used the HRFunk code to save a few bucks.
Great!
Love your series. I built mine as well but used the MC-3 stock (plastic version of the A-5)with badger rings and base. The MC-3 stock is nice its beefier and to me it is more rigid in hotter weather.
Great job on the modifications to that rifle H R. looks great and shoots even better
Thanks Tom!
This was a great series of videos.
Enjoyed this series of the Model 700 HRF. You put together a fine rifle.
Thanks Ray!
A great project and even better results. Thanks for taking us along on this journey of the Remington 700HRF. One of your commenters below mentions a muzzel break on a shotgun. That might be something for you to look into for us.
Thanks Frank. I’ll see what I can find out.
Excellent review of all your upgrades to this Rifle and Congratulations on it all turning out so well! 🙂
Thank you!
It's been a good and informative series build and thank you for your efforts. As you already found out there is so many aftermarket parts and accessories made for the R700 that you could almost fill up a semi with them, but it sure makes it nice for the rifle you want to build to call your own. I think its time for a head to head with your old service 700 and your new toy, and tell us what you like and dislike about each!
Yeah, I love the ergonomics of Magpul stocks but they're kinda stingy with sling attachments. While my Ruger American Hunter .308 came with the QD cups but on every other Magpul stock I have, you have to buy the QD cups separately. I guess that's how they stay budget friendly and besides, not everyone uses QD.
That looks so awesome dude
That’s a good looking rig. Any plans to take it somewhere for some “long distance dedications”, as Mr Kasem used to say?
It would be great if Magpul offered a version of this stock with rotary knob adjustments.
I'm not a rifle guy but you are changing my mind. A freak accident took part of my foot, I'm watching all of your videos. Pretty well stuck to home for at least a couple more months
Thanks for these videos I've learned a lot
You’re welcome. Thanks for watching!
Thx for the tip on amend 2 magazines, was discounted on optics planet for $14.99,
My pleasure.
I really liked this series of videos and how you took a reasonably priced rifle and improved things to improve performance. Nice job here!
Thanks KD!
That’s definitely a upgrade for the rifle but not what I would have done , I would have used a Bell & Carlson stock a Warne steel rail and a Atlas Bi-Pod and the same trigger you used , the Leupold scope variable powers range from 6.5 x 20 or 8.5 x 25 trust me I have multiple Leupold scopes and just purchased a 4.5 x 14 in the Mark 4 line , it’s a good budget build HR
You're right. I misspoke in the video. The one on this rifle is an 8.5X25. I considered some more high-end upgrades, but I decided to go the more budget friendly route.
@@hrfunkit’s a excellent choice for optics especially when you don’t have to purchase one , I am in the camp of buy once and cry once that’s exactly what I did with my Remington 300 Win/Mag Sendero a MPA chassis with the Atlas Bi-Pod and a Timney Calvin Elite trigger and a Vortex 5 x 25 PST scope with Leupold Mark 4 rings
@@talkingrock7011 How does it shoot?
@@hrfunkbetter than my self with my hand loads of 210 grain Berger and 200 grain Sierra Match king HPBT , thanks for asking
I would’ve went with a KRG Bravo stock myself but glad its shooting well for you.
Be sure to check out today’s video (live at 0800 Eastern) for more footage of the 700’s performance.
Question: Barrel break in.
Do you have a swabbing procedure to clean the bore after XXXX many shots or something?
Retired G.I Joe . Sick build
You're not done, where's the sling! Just kidding ...
Im imagining the 700adl varmint barrel will always be a better first time purchase for a beginner at shooting range with a bolt action?
I was looking at the sps but if this were a cheaper option I’d probably consider it
A dream groundhog gun
I might have to give it a try at the family farm when the weather gets a little warmer!
catching the replay i overslept
Would you consider doing a similar project with the Winchester Model 70? The Model 70 returned to using the Mauser action about 20 years ago when FN bought the company.
I rarely see a Model 70 these days. I would like to try one, but I don’t know where to find one.
Eyebrows, Jarhead!
I got them trimmed!
I like everything about the build, especially the emphasis on balancing budget with quality. As an aside, what are your thoughts on the Foxtrot Mike ranch rifle lower?
I’m sorry, I’m not familiar with that lower. Can you send me some info?
@@hrfunk czcams.com/video/UAJwZeAS-bA/video.html
@@hrfunk its an ar lower with a deleted handgrip which accepts magpul rem 700 stocks. my question is in regard to the concept, as opposed to the manufacturer. and thanks, as always for this series of videos! --edit-- i posted a link to a video about the lower here on youtube, but it got kicked.
thanks for the video! I would love to know how much this "system" weighs?
Someone else asked that too. I’ll have to weigh it and let you know.
I want the model HRF
👍👍
Help! The link in the Browning High Power people's email Does Not Work. So no way to sign up for notification. Your website has just the same YT quick view YT where there is no place to comment or sign up. I'm on the west coast and don't want to miss it.
The link to the livestream will go live at approximately 0945 my time. That should be 0645 your time. The livestream will kick off at 0700 your time.
I got a 1970's BDL in 25-06 and 7 mmmag,,,,,,love then both,,,,,,,But watch that safety,,,,,,the safety sits to high, it get caught on limbs and branches,,,,,,i had the 7 mag go off on my shoulder Elk hunting in Idaho in thick brush,,,,,,,,,,we hit the ground cause we thought somebody was shooting at us,,,,,,that was in the 80's and i can still hear a little ring from it Blasting my ear. I always keep a round chambered, i dont care for new guns,,,,,,,china steel and i dont like that plastic look,,,,, Wood is Good
This information would only be of interest to another buyer of the stock you are featuring. Very boring to you general gun enthusiast.
A prospective purchaser is precisely who this content was made for. Anyone who is not interested can skip past it.
Thanks, nice to know they make a decent project build. But either one of the Colt CBX models are ready to run...
I wouldn't mind trying one of those.
@@hrfunk Ikr, with the wad I got wrapped up in my snake guns, I'm seriously thinking about it.
My thoughts exactly on the stock. I paid $260 for mine but would gladly pay $300 ish if it came with the needed accessories you spoke of.
