How about a picture of one of those sliders on a Remington Bolt.
Thanks Gary
By "slider" I'm referring to the AR-15 style conversion and in truth only two of mine are (were) "sliders" as I've had several Sako style too. Coned nose are sliders???? can't remember and too lazy to go out to the shop. I'll check tomorrow. I just don't shoot 700's much any more.... and have sold off all but a few.
They were all installed in an attempt to "upgrade" from 700 factory style..... or, in two cases, because "the boltface was so far out of whack that to clean it up... etc etc."
I'm intrigued by the idea that you can just stuff a PPC barrel on an unmodified Rem 700 bolt.... I had no idea, having been told for 20yrs that it's necessary to change out the bolt for PPC.

I believe the bolt alteration was originally done so you could keep more of the weak (older) PPC case in the chamber. The original 700 bolt nose stuck out to far for that.
