    Rem 700 halfcock

    Hey,

    Can you mod a rem 700 bolt to have a halfcock like a Tika T3?

    Cheers

    Just another layer of safe while stalking. It's pretty easy to disengage the safety on my Christensen Arms Messa. I really enjoyed stalking with my mates half open/cock set up

    It's safer to keep the rifle at home in the safe than to fuck around with the bolt...
