Compatibility
This chassis is designed for:
- Right-handed Remington Model 700 Short Action rifles
- Selected Remington 700 Short Action clone receivers with matching dimensions
Compatible factory rifles may include selected versions of the:
- Remington 700 SPS
- Remington 700 SPS Varmint
- Remington 700 SPS Tactical
- Remington 700 ADL
- Remington 700 BDL
- Remington 700 CDL
- Remington 700 Varmint
- Remington 700 VTR
- Remington 700 Magpul
- Remington 700 Short Action custom rifles
Selected Bergara B-14, Bergara Premier and other Remington 700-pattern short actions may fit. Compatibility must be confirmed before ordering because clone actions can use different recoil lugs, bolt releases, triggers and trigger hangers.
Clone-Action Compatibility
Before ordering for a Remington 700 clone, confirm:
- Short-action receiver dimensions
- Action-screw spacing
- Receiver diameter and bottom profile
- Recoil-lug thickness and width
- Bolt-release configuration
- Trigger-hanger design
- Trigger and safety clearance
- Magazine-feed geometry
Professional fitting or minor inletting may be required for some aftermarket actions.
Not Compatible With
This chassis is not intended for:
- Remington 700 Long Action rifles
- Left-handed Remington 700 actions
- Remington Model 783
- Remington Model Seven
- Remington 700 muzzleloaders
- Remington 700 rimfire actions without confirmed compatibility
- Rifles using unrelated action patterns
- Long-action or CIP-length AICS magazines
Calibre Compatibility
The chassis is selected according to the rifle’s action length, not calibre alone.
Common short-action chamberings may include:
- .223 Remington
- .22-250 Remington
- .243 Winchester
- 6mm Creedmoor
- 6.5 Creedmoor
- 7mm-08 Remington
- .308 Winchester
- .260 Remington
The correct short-action AICS magazine must be selected for the cartridge.
A standard .308/6.5 Creedmoor AICS magazine is not suitable for every cartridge. Calibres such as .223 Remington, .22-250 Remington, 6BR, 6GT and WSM-family cartridges may require dedicated magazine bodies, followers, spacers or feed-lip geometry.
The chassis does not change the rifle’s chambering, bolt face or safe ammunition requirements.
Magazine System
This ORYX chassis converts a compatible Remington 700 Short Action rifle to a detachable short-action AICS-pattern magazine system.
The following are not included or automatically compatible:
- Original Remington BDL hinged floorplate
- Factory internal magazine box
- Proprietary detachable magazines
- Long-action AICS magazines
- AICS magazines for the wrong cartridge family
The AICS magazine is sold separately.
When selecting a magazine, confirm:
- Calibre
- Cartridge overall length
- Feed-lip configuration
- Magazine capacity
- Metal or polymer construction
- Compatibility with the chosen bullet profile
Construction and Ergonomics
The aluminium V-block creates a rigid and repeatable interface between the action and chassis. Conventional glass bedding is normally not required for a standard installation.
The forend allows the barrel to free float when the barrel contour remains within the stated clearance. This helps reduce changes in point of impact caused by stock pressure.
The adjustable cheek riser helps position the shooter’s eye correctly behind the scope. Length-of-pull adjustment allows the stock to be configured for different shooting positions and body sizes.
The included MDT Elite pistol grip provides a more vertical trigger-hand position for prone, bench and supported shooting.
Accessory Mounting
M-LOK slots beneath the forend allow compatible accessories to be installed, including:
- Bipods
- Sling mounts
- Picatinny rail sections
- Tripod adapters
- Barricade accessories
- M-LOK weights and balance accessories
Compatible ORYX ARCA rails can also be installed. An ARCA rail is not included unless specifically stated.
Installation
Installation normally involves transferring the Remington 700 barreled action and trigger from the factory stock into the ORYX chassis.
Always:
- Confirm that the rifle is completely unloaded
- Remove all ammunition from the work area
- Follow MDT’s model-specific instructions
- Use the supplied installation hardware
- Apply the manufacturer’s recommended action-screw torque
- Confirm that the barrel is fully free floating
- Check trigger and safety operation
- Verify bolt movement and cocking
- Check magazine retention and release
- Confirm feeding, extraction and ejection before live use
Do not overtighten the action screws. Incorrect torque can damage components or affect accuracy.
Professional installation by a competent gunsmith is recommended when fitting a clone action or if the owner is unfamiliar with firearm assembly.
