Remington 700 ML

[SSlater]

Shot in the dark but here goes.

I've got an older Remington 700 ML 50 cal. stainless. Due to moving several times and not hunting for years, I've misplaced the nipple wrench. Was wondering if anyone had one laying around they were willing to part with.

Also looking for musket cap nipple or 209 conversion.

Located in Kingston

I went with the badger ridge kit so I could shoot blackhorn 209. I think I have a 209 breech plug and firing pin that's not compatible with bh209 in my parts box if you're interested.

I'm interested. How do like the badger ridge?I'm thinking of going that route later. Just trying to get it up and running for hunting season

Send the bolt to Luke at arrowhead and have him convert it and send you a new breech plug.

btw can you remove the breech plug then use a small open end wrench to remove the nipple. Remove the breech plug with a deep socket and long extension.

I really like the badger ridge kit. Install was straight forward and it's been reliable with bh209. I ordered a couple extra vent liners when I got the kit.

Pm me an address and I'll get the 209 setup out on Monday.

Yes. I removed it with a 7/16 deep socket. I haven't removed the nipple yet. Most likely won't have to.

Dang, rocket mules, lol.


Well, I'm glad they made it and I hope it works perfectly.

Pretty impressive I thought as well. I don't see why it wouldn't work just fine. Thanks again!
