Thread: Tips to rebuilding an old Remington 700 ADL into a LR rig

But its $1000 for a match tube fitted, plus the stock, plus bedding and what ever trigger work is needed if you are buying all services. Other wise sell it and buy a good used tikka, etc.

You may also end up with the action being worse than it was before you started depending on who did the work!
