Package Deal Varmint Rifle

[urbanrifleman]

I had an idea to add rifle packages to my store. I have all the parts you need to build a Remington 700 varmint rifle. Either using a Magpul chassis, an MPA chassis, or made to order HS Precision stock. Of course, I will also have the Benchrest /F class stock that uses a benchrest, but I was thinking more of a bipod hunting rifle like mine (which I love).

You would buy all the of the components at a slight package discount (say 10% or more, haven't decided) and you receive them, put them together and go shoot. All the parts are meant to go together so no real machining or gunsmithing is involved (only headspacing and that is really easy). Once my barrels arrive I plan on doing some videos showing how easily you can do this and how incredible they shoot.

So, you would need:
1. Go to Budsguns and buy Remington 700 action. I can't sell them any cheaper than Buds.
2. Urbanrifleman SS varmint barrel and nut.
3. HS Precision stock made to order, chassis etc etc.
4. 1/4" recoil lug specially chosen for its compatibility with the stocks I chose.
5. Picatinny rail.
6. Scope rings.
7. Bat Action screws ( I only carry Bat, the stock ones are really not nice).
7. Barrel break in kit made by Tubb for me (with free Tubb Dust included---try it).

I suggest a bubble level also, I will have that soon.

We figured it up and you can build a F Class / Benchrest rifle with my Revolution stock for about $1200 before glass. All the varmint rifles would be less than that, unless you got all the bells and whistles on a stock. None of my stocks require bedding. So, my rifle shown here would be about $1100 or less. And I will have the 6bra, 6xc, 223, 223a, and 6br in whatever freebore you want pretty much. Custom rifle accuracy. Easy assembly.

AAAAAAaaaand.... If you burn up the barrel---- buy another one... At $235 who cares??? Go to the towns and shoot away with reckless abandon, if you smoke it, I will ship you another one, screw on another in 15 minutes, and back to new.

Anyway, that is my idea.

sounds like a great idea to me

That actually sounds good Bradley, plus a customer could send three fired cases along with their die to Wilson for that perfect sizing die to go with it.

Interesting!!

I am not really sure if that is necessary really, with my barrel. You can set the headspace where you want. So, if you want to keep your fired case from growing just screw the barrel in a tick.

I actually like my shoulders to have a lot of clearance... actually. I think they shoot better. They sure feed better

Make sure they know their buying a "parts kit only" and that all rules and regulations from the ATF apply.They are fixing to manufacture a firearm.

Go buy a Defiance Tenacity action. built in recoil lug. Don't have to Square up action.
better set up than a Remy 700.

 

[10XSHOOTER]

What kind of barrels are you using at $235.00 choice of twists?

 

[urbanrifleman]

My blanks are Wilson. All 8 twist. That is all you need from my experience.

Sure. You can do that. I had one of those in my hand over the weekend. You are correct about the lug and rail, and it is pretty thing for sure, but the one I tried was no smoother than a Remmy.... which is kind of interesting. I thought it would be. Sure is pretty though...

I am at the point that I don't think you have to square a RR Remington either... although that is heresy, I know...

We are getting ready to address this "squaring" business when the barrels get here.... My partner and I. We are going to do thorough testing on a bone stock Remmy and then square it, put the same barrel back on and shoot it again. Several barrels. Multiple shooters. I got 5 bucks says squaring does nothing on the target, because that is the not the accuracy shortcoming of that action.

In my OPINION, for a varmint rifle it is a total waste of time. My Texas Ranger (shown in picture above) isn't squared, and it shoots splats so small on 500 foot steel targets you can't tell how close together they are in the scope. That is "half pdog" sized groups, if a man can hold that small. Of course, this was off a concrete bench in ideal conditions too. Not out on the prairie with the wind blowing, off a portable bench, no known yardages... doping the wind on the fly... Out there that perceived improvement, real or imagined, is much ado about nothing...

pirate ammo,

I have put together quite a few "tinker toys" together from bare serial numbered "firearms", and have never considered myself to be a manufacturer.

If you are buying a Remington 700 action, then Remington is the manufacturer, you are just completing a build. The action is the "firearm".
Please explain if this is wrong.

urbanrifleman,

Sounds like a very good option package. I wish you good luck with your venture.

If I purchase all of the parts and assemble a rifle, I have manufactured that rifle and I must record it and report it at the end of the year as such. Many will have customers supply the parts and then consider it gunsmithing, but thats a grey area that may not stand up under scrutiny. How any of this applies to a guy putting something together for his own use, I have no idea.

And you are an ffl which kind of comes with the territory. If you are storing a customer firearm while you work on it, you have to sign it in, but only thing they care about would be the serialized receiver. The rest is just parts.

Just commenting for the sake of conversation, I know you already are very well versed with all that stuff!!

I started another company with my partner and we will have an ffl and will be able to do builds over there.

 

[Alex Wheeler]

I am not giving legal advice. But guys assemble ARs all the time as end users, I dont think its an issue.
When you do your squaring test, make sure you dont have good lug contact on the before action or you wont actually be testing anything by truing it. I have cured some finicky customs by fixing lug contact, so it does matter. But you can check this in about 30 seconds and if its good, Id save the money on the truing job.

 

[TheOtherZilla]

Interested, but what calibers will it be available in? Other than what I saw listed?

 

[urbanrifleman]

I am a small business just getting started. My first run of barrels covers the calibers that I think people should be shooting to get ultimate accuracy and killing power. There are so many calibers...

It is my hope that my prices will entice people to try some new things. Keep it simple. Keep it focused. Keep a core group of calibers in stock.

What caliber were you looking at?

Btw: my partner business will offer special calibers but I have no timeframe yet. And those won't be $235.

Varmint Calibers. Like 220 Swift, 22-250, 204

 

[Rick300]

I would love to see a .20 practical offering.

 

[urbanrifleman]

Varmint Calibers. Like 220 Swift, 22-250, 204

I see... fair enough. Let me explain my plan here.

I am trying to show folks that a short freebore 6bra will smoke a 22-250 with 10 grains less powder (ala Alex Wheeler and his good teachings), and is easier on barrels, and a short throat 6xc will smoke a 220 Swift.

I honestly think you would be hard pressed to beat a 50 fb 6xc shooting 70-85 grain bullets for varmint vaporization. The case is tapered for a repeater, and brass is cheap from Tubb for $68 a 100. I figure we should be up near 3900 fps with a 70 and 3650 fps with an 85. I have no idea what a 55 grain will do maybe 4200 fps?

The 223 Ackley will nearly match a 22-250 with a barrel life of 4-5000 rounds. My 223A will shoot the 50 grain bullets at 3850 and it is way cheaper and easier to reload.

So, the plan was to offer the barrels cheap enough that people will give these new ideas a serious look. You can spend the difference on dies and brass That was the idea behind offering specific freebores for each caliber.

I will have to consider more calibers in the future for people who do not handload I suppose.

excellent idea!

Exactly what I have found. And everything you take off the lug moves the bolt handle back that much further. Which can lead to other problems.

Your experience is like, wow... about a billion actions haha so you feel free to give unsolicited advice to me!!!
