Totally disagree with T7 on this point... The 700 bolt area is much larger easier to access than the Black Diamond, the bolt does require a allen to remove but once the screw is backed off it falls right out. The blow-back that Randy has you convinced of - itdoes not happen with a Cabelas conversion. The Cabelas 209 nipple does not eatthe 209 spring up as has the Black Diamond.

I can not argue the lifetime warranty thing - definitely got the Remington beat there.

I have had both rifles and it is my personal belief that the Remington is a better gun than the Black Diamond. In fact I do not even have the Black Diamond any longer, but I still have both Remingtons.
