Picking up someone else's project that got shelved tomorrow. A Remington 700 barrelled action in .308 with the factory 26" barrel. Also included are two Hogue overmold stocks, an Archangel stock and a 20" SPS tactical barrel.
My plan so far is to have the tactical barrel swapped with the standard barrel and have it threaded. I may even have it cut down a couple inches. Will be installing an Ares Effin-A muzzle brake as well.
My only sticking point is the stock. I recently saw a Magpul Hunter and really like it but is it really an upgrade over the Archangel? I figure I can sell the AA and Hogue stocks plus the stock 26" barrel and pay for the Magpul stock, bottom metal, a 5 and 10 round magazine and have a little cash left over for ammo.
Thoughts???
