[QUOTE="WildRose, post: 1286482, member: 30902"] That makes it easy. Timeny, Jewell, and Rifle Basix Triggers are very popular aftermarket triggers for the 700 action. There are some others out there as well but those are probably the big three right now. There's nothing wrong with the walnut factory BDL stocks but you do need to be a little more generous when floating the barrel to allow for some movement due to flex and weather changes. You can take care of the latter to a great extent by having steel or aluminum pillars installed and at least bed the recoil lug and by treating and sealing the wood once all of the stock work is finished. My rule for wood stocks is to take some tung oil and rub it in with bronze wool every day for a week or ten days or until it just ceases to absorb it. Once it reaches that point seal it with some sanding sealer, varnish, or shellac. If you don't want to fool with that much stock work cruise the classifieds here at LRH and other forums along with Ebay for take off H-S Precision and Bell and Carlson stocks and stick it in one of them.
