It’s far from done. I’m going to put other shades of brown on the stock and scope and paint the bipod, lenses caps and mags. And get a different color Eagle pouch.
That’s Norrells Moly on the can, barrel, action, scope rings and bolt. And Krylon on the stock and scope.
Looks good. I like it considering my favorite color is FDE 
Looks damn good I must say. What model is that. (I know its a 700).
700 Police DM in .308…1x10 twist cut to 20" and threaded by John Noveske. Action work, trigger work by Precision Weapons at Quantico.
Nice!
Not to take away from the point of this thread but, you said you had "Precision Weapons at Quantico"do the work on your 700. Are you referring to the USMC Quantico? I tried a search with no luck. I kept getting the USMC web links
Yes it was the 2112s at Quantico PWS. I bought it from member (Looey) he knows some guys at PWS. (Looey worked for HRP at Weapons Training Batt. at the time).
Its nice to have hook ups like that!
I also painted mine yesturday, your look great.
Jim
GotM4, is that the factory barrel you had cut down?
Is that the color that Norell’s simply calls “tan”?
Yes, it was 24" barrel and I had John Noveske cut it to 20" and threaded it to 5/8x24.
Yes.
Thanks.
It looks great.
Hey Rob,
What did Noveske charge you to cut an thread? I was thinking about taking mine down to 18.
Thanks
IIRC it was $150 plus return shipping. Give me a call, we have a guy locally that can do it in Fredericksburg.
Nice job. How does the Norrells Moly and Krylon stand up to cleaning solvents? I’ve got a 700 too and I’m thining of painting it. My concern is that any spilled or running cleaning solvents might erode the new paint. Thanks.
What’s the empty weight on that rig? Without the can?
Norrells holds up just fine Krylon will come off with Gunscrubber. I hardest chemical I use on this gun is Sweets 7.62 once a year and I’m very careful.
When did Remington start using 1:10 twist barrels?
I think it was special ordered that way, I’m not the original owner.
