Thread: Rem 700 halfcock

I'm also interested in what sort of half cock you can do on a rem model 7.
I have both types of half cocks on the tikkas.
The 'safety hole' style and a 'half cock detent' style.
I drilled the bolt on my tikka .223 myself which worked well. Got sick of picking the rifle up when hunting after not shooting, lifting the bolt, move rifle, the bolt would fall open and eject the round.
Definitely prefer the 'safety hole' half cock style while bush hunting. The bolt is locked in a neutral position.
