Anyone out there have a Remington 700 Action (long or short, preferrably long) that they want to part with?

I have a 300WSM in a Weatherby Vanguard. I like the caliber, but not so much the gun. I won it at an SCI banquet a few years ago. I've shot a moose, elk, a few deer and my buddy shot a Thar and a Chamoir with it so it's killed quite a few things in the time I've had it. No matter how hard I try I just can't like the Vanguard.

They guarantee sub MOA and it does that with most everything but not much better. I've ran the gauntlet with loads but nothing really seems to perform the way I want it to. I would like it to shot .5" groups. To tell you the truth, even if it did shoot that, I still probably wouldn't keep it. It definately needs a trigger and I'm sure that would help. Vanguard must have the crappiest trigger out of the box I've ever seen. Double creep and if you try to adjust, the safety will not engage.

So instead I'm going to sell it and build/have built another this winter. I'm going to build it on a 700 action and I thought I would ask around a few places before hitting the pawn shops.
