Magpul Lengthens Hunter Stocks for Remington Long Action

    Magpul, deciding to innovate again, has announced the Hunter 700L Stock is now shipping. The new offering brings many of the features of the fantastic Hunter 700 stock for those wishing to shoot long and magnum cartridges.

    The new stock uses an anodized aluminum bedding block to handle the recoil. Magpul states the stock is “… a true ‘drop-in’ solution for the end user.” The well-established SGA-type spaces and cheek risers are used for length of pull and comb adjustment. LOP spacers are available in .50″ increments and the cheek risers come in .00, .25 (included with stock), .50″ and .75″ versions.

    Probably the most important part of the system is its compatibility with various existing accessories. The front of the stock uses M-LOK slots and the Bolt Action Magazine Well 700L is compatible with existing metal AICS magazines and Magpuls new polymer PMAG AC-L “Standard” and “Magnum” magazines (which are a screaming deal at $39.95 compared to the various AICS magazines).

     

    The Hunter 700L is currently shipping in black, with Flat Dark Earth, Olive Drab Green, and Stealth Grey as future options. The base 700L stock retails for $279, with the various detachable magazine adapters clocking in at $79. Street prices will likely be less.

    All blind floorplate ADL models will require current factory Remington hinged bottom metal or the optional Magpul Bolt Action Magazine Well 700L Standard or Magnum.

    Since factory action mounting screws can come in a variety of lengths, grinding to length or utilizing longer replacements may be necessary to optimize fit with the Hunter 700L.
