+1, If your not experienced with Rem700 walker triggers don't touch it, give it to a quality gunsmith, nobody said it so thought i would. As for #4, ++1, i see guys just grab whatever is on sale or what they used in a different rifle and it shot fine so they just buy it without a second thought.

I was given a browning a-bolt stainless stalker and after trying several different handloads out of it i planned on making a tent stake out of it but somebody offered me money for it so it found a different home.
