I purchased a Remington 700 5R a year or so ago thanks to JimmyAGR letting me shoot his at CJRPC.. I wasn't a huge fan of the stock so i upgraded it to the Mcrees Precision R7ST Stock in FDE and loved the color. I met Dan from Precision Firearms Coating in Edison @ the outdoor show. Dan does Cerakote & Hydrocoating and decided to get my barrel done to match the stock.... (my buddy had his glock done as well). Still need to work on a better scope and decide if that too will be FDE...

 

Here's the before;

 

 

New stock installed, chrome barrel

 

 

 

Barrel in FDE

 

 

 

 

 

Overall I'm really happy with both the stock & Dans work. The color is damn near exact and the Cerakote job is flawless..

 

Here's my buddies Glock w/digital camo & grip Stippling

 

Nice, how does she shoot?

This thing shoots great. You have to try and not hit your target.. it's almost boring, thats why i decided to change it up and do the mods..

Really really nice man, I am in the process of the next steps on my 700 and this looks really really nice. I'm sure a pretty penny though? But really awesome looking.

How do you like that Bushnell Elite 4200? I almost bought one a long time ago for of all things a .22LR lol, MidwayUSA had a huge Bushnell closeout sale and they had Elite 3200 and 4200s half off, and a $800 4200 was like $479... it was very tempting but I said to myself, WTF are you really going to do with that thing on your 597 lol.

That's way cool!

Loons great Don. What was the cost of getting the barrel done a d is that Tony's 34/35?

Jimmy's rifle has made a few people buy one. I think he should get a kick back from Remington and mcrees.

Very nice, hopefully I get to do a project like this in the future.

Yeah it was Tony's.. my barrel and scope rail was $125.00

I honestly really like the 4200, no complaints at all. It's hard to replace it, especially in terms of cost.. Clear glass..

Nice Don, looks great. $125 seems very reasonable.

I thought so as well.. the finished product is very nice.. wasn't sure about getting the bolt done, i think i like it original flavor...

Wow...that's a beautiful rifle

Thanks guys. Appreciate the comments.. Would you match the scope or keep it black?

 

Also, Dan @ Precision is an Edison LEO & super nice guy. He's just starting out and I talked to him about the forum, so we might see him sign up here as a vendor once he gets rollin... The stippling work he did on my buddies glock is really nice, you have to almost throw the gun to get it out of you hand :-) (ok, not really, but you get the idea.. lets not start a "threw my gun" post again :-) )

i say match the scope.

 

Knowing that i am definitely going there. Edison is very close

haha, I threw that in there just for you... Here's Dan's cell - 732-406-7466

That is one sharp looking rifle. I really like the stock. The barrel coating came out awesome. I might have to redo my Beretta Xtrema the camp is coming off. Your buddies Glock looks cool too. I like the digicamo

Don that looks great! I might have to contact him, was thinking of getting one of my AR's cerakoated. I like the bolt just the way it is. I put a Vortex Viper 6x24 on my Remmy, nice glass for the money.

funny you mention that scope, I've got one in my cart on Amazon for over a week now... you bastard... Did you get the 1st focal plane one?

 

 

 

IF Tony did't get the stippling done on the grips, he could have multicam'd the whole gun. It wouldn't look right with the multicam on the stippling..

I like the look now but if your going for z tactical look, I'd cost the bolt also.

 

Damn these both look good. Thanks for posting his number.

No I have the 2nd FP model. I couldn't justify the 1st FP. You are more then welcome to play with it. Let me know when you can get to the range.

Yeah, i didn't think it was worth it either, shoot fine without it now..

Don and Jimmy, we need to get all 3 of our 700s out to CJ one day and get a pic of all 3 together,

I forgot to mention that Dan also offers LEO & Military discounts on all of his services.. I know we have a few of both on here so i thought it was worth mentioning..

Good to know of a local guy that Cerakotes. Thanks.
