Remmington 700 .308 SPS Tactical Chassis

Afrikeber · Mar 8, 2013

I'm looking at upgrading my .308 with an aluminun chassis like the TAC21 offered by Brownells. Wondering if anyone has done so or if another chassis has been used that is available out there. Comments on before and after results of upgrade as it relates to accuracy and feel are welcome. Brownell lists their TAC21 kit for $799.00 so if you know of a better bargain please do recommend.

Try looking at the XLR chassis.

I have 2 of the McRee Chassis for my Rem 700's. The McRee chassis is a complete bolt in and comes with one mag. By the picture on Brownell's it looks like you still need to add the stock for the rifle with the Tac21.

I love my Accuracy International AICS. Pricey but worth every penny.

I loooooove the look of the Tac-21. Planned to get it but it was out of stock for forever.

Glad it was. A lot of negative reviews from Snipers Hide and other sites. Several of the complaints were consistent in that there was no repeatability in shots, poor ergonomics, the screw inserts stripping out....

AI has an amazing reputation. I ended up with a B&C M40. Love it. Not trying to crap on your dreams, just trying to help you out.

I just recently purchased a XLR Chassis. I was looking for sometype of DBM. I was going to get a JAE Chassis but after finding out how expensive they were and the 12month waiting list, I started looking for something else.
That when I found XLR Industries. It was only a 8 week lead time.
I very impressed with it. Im hope to shoot it in the next couple of weeks.

This XLR Evolution Chassis is bad ass.

Manners mini chassis available for BDL or DBM.

Some of the cons I see with the AR type style chassis are not being able to use a scope base that extends out past the front of the action because of the round handguard gets in the way, or as in the case of the tac 21 the scope is mounted considerably higher in relation to the bore as opposed to a base screwed to the action.

Love mine. Barrel currently at Hafers getting threaded.

Lovely! Just ordered my XLR Carbon... 8 weeks! Ugh! What height rings are those?

Pinecone · May 10, 2013

I am seriously thinking about getting a Manners T4A for mine.

Me too!

Many folks will disagree but I think the best "chassis" is a simple McMillan stock. They don't turn an otherwise nice handling rifle into a club with a bunch of stuff hanging off it. But then again I'm old and not all that tactical.

trp7 · May 22, 2013

Mcree all the way. I have one for sale now for Remington Short action.

virtus · May 22, 2013

XLR is the way to go, IMHO. Kyle (from XLR) is the man. Their customer service is out of this world.

axshon · May 22, 2013

SOM3, that rifle looks nice but appears to ride awfully high. How does it handle when prone?

I like my McRees Precision folder so far but won't be competing with it until after 2012. Price was competitive with the XLR but the package deal for the tan model included some goodies which sealed the deal. With a pending move and the new laws coming here I've moved all firearms but my HD shotty out of state so I'm just a spectator now.
