You used to be able to buy just the Remington 700 action assembly only (receiver, bolt, safety, and trigger). Is that no longer possible?
The Remington Stripped Actions have become extremely hard to get. I normally just buy the cheapest 700 SPS and go from there.
yeh basically they are the same style i think just different metals, the 5R is stainless action.
there are lots of nice actions out there for sell that offer LH configurations, its just a matter of looking.
I considered them, but they are REALLY pricey. A basic Surgeon bolt assembly will run you ~$1300. McMillian, the same. I'm willing to go $600-700 for the action-only. Frankly, I'm surprised more companies haven't jumped on this missing part of the market, since Remington stopped offering the action only. I see that Savage does...
You can get a precision bolt assembly with trigger group and detachable magazine for ~$500 MSRP. I don't know if they come in LH, though.
