Remington 700 Bench Rest Cocking Piece (.030" Relief)

This custom cocking piece was developed after requests came in from several Bench Rest shooters. It features a relief of .030" where the cocking piece engages the trigger group. This relief means the cocking piece holds forward from its original designed position when the firing pin is cocked. For Bench Rest shooters, this results in the following benefits:

This cocking piece is not recommended for self-defense or hunting rifles. The reduced firing pin travel and force can cause misfires, especially on hard primers. Bench Rest shooters compensate for this issue by carefully making up their own ammunition with soft primers. Only recommended for experienced shooters / gunsmiths.
