Hello All

Long shot, but just wanted to check to see if anyone had a Action sleeve for a Rem 600/Model 7
The type i'm after is patterned like a Panda, I think Pseco used to made them.
I know not likely to be sitting around - but happy to be surprised !!

Regards

My current REM 700 has the sleeve with the Panda footprint !!! Sadly the man in the U.S. who used to make them has passed on i was told. John Giles does a similar sleeve and so does Phil Jones . They are similar to the Panda ones but have a different footprint but are very good!!

G'day all,
Um why do you need one? If the barrel is of a reasonable length & weight I don't believe you need one.
This is based on the Rem600 I had as a 6ppc with a 24" No6 fluted Maddco and a Rem700 repeater action that had a 26" No7 Truflight truck axle hanging off it that I thought was excessive for that action but it still shot brilliantly.
The only reason I could accept is an increased bedding area but based on the above it's not conclusive.
Food for thought

Id like a sleeve aswell but haven't had any luck trying to get one. I don't run any heavier then HV profile of my R700 actions and don't think you need a sleeve for that weight but it would be nice for a lil added peace of mind.

Would it be possible to build a sleeve set-up like a tube-stock with the fore end as a single piece or even go all way and do the full stock?

Yes I suppose it would be but you gotta make sure you can still change barrels. But sure. Why not.
