Hey everyone, so I started building a long range hunting/tactical gun. I did start off with a remm 700 short action. I know I know but for 380 for the rifle off of arms list I can't complain. I have removed the basic shit stock and put on a magpul hunter 700 stock. I have alot left to do for example replace the trigger , rail, and scope.
A decent start I guess.

what caliber short action? as long as its not a 223 version then good job, and on the trigger what kind are you looking at 1 or 2 stage?
Is there an off the shelf steel pipe that is an appropriate bore diameter and thickness to use as barrel for a matchlock rifle?
i was able to get it in the .308. version. I'm thinking of going with the timney 510 trigger. I also waiting to purchase the magazine well from Magpul so I can use 5 to 10 round mags. There is a lot I want to do with it.
Op here I took a different picture to show the other side of the rifle.

I would be careful just using a pipe off the shelf. There's plenty of barrel blanks you can buy online that would be a safer bet.

Thanks bud. I am no gunsmith by any means, but I am going to do the trigger replacement by myself . Brownell's has a good kit out there that comes with tools, and instruction vids. Im not trying to fud this all up.

If I bought a Remington 700, what parts would I need to replace first? From what I've heard, current production R700s need to be refitted completely to perform well, I'd like to have the parts on-hand before I get the gun. Make things more seamless...

I thought I was looking at a Fallout 4 screenshot for a second.
