Two screws and you can transform your Remington 700’s accuracy, features and looks with a new stock.

Remington 700 rifles and the myriad of excellent clones make solid long range guns. Or short range. Either way, your stock may leave something to be desired. Like the one shown here, it can flex easily.

With a little pressure from my hand I can easily flex the stock. Imagine how much flex can happen as the rifle recoils! Where might your barrel be pointed as the stock flexes?

While this isn’t a Grayboe Ridgeback review per se, it is the stock I chose for this upgrade. The Grayboe is a LOT stiffer, so less flex under recoil nets improved accuracy.

Installing a new stock on your Remington 700 can add functionality. In this case, the Grayboe’s fore-end gives us M-LOK rails at 3, 6 and 9 o’clock and a flat base for shooting off bags and barriers. We get a vertical pistol grip and adjustable cheek rest for ergos, a hood for stabilizing with bags, adjustable length of pull and recoil pad. You get the point, changing you 700’s stock can add a ton of functionality. I almost forget – Graybe puts a bubble level in the stock!

And we have to talk looks. Sure, it’s subjective, but with so many great looking Remington 700 stocks on the market now no one is seriously going to overlook this.

Changing your 700 stock is super simple – with a mere two screws to manage, take it apart and put it back together. End of story.

Well, almost.

First, make sure rifle is unloaded.

Now that we know safety wins the day, flip your 700 over to access the guard screws. Remove them while holding the floor plate in place. No floor plate? No worries.

Your barreled action should drop free from the stock now. Easy, right? Line up the recoil lug with the slot on the 700 replacement stock, replace the bottom metal and magazine from the other side and put the screws back in. Done. There are a few important details in the video, so hopefully you've already watched it!
