Some things deserve a second chance, such as all the old Remington 700 rifles in the back of closets and gun safes, collecting dust...
The Side Chick Chassis by Q LLC does just that. It takes a lot of the external design features of The Fix Rifle by Q, and incorporates them into a incredibly lightweight and feature rich chassis. Giving you a full length hand guard, folding stock, adjustable length of pull and cheek piece, AR grip, as well as AI Pattern removable magazines.
To illustrate how much the Side Chick improves a Remington 700, Mitch and I bought a used .308 off the shelf at a gun store and proceeded to shoot some test groups with it. After which we swapped it out into the Side Chick Chassis and re-shot those test groups. There was a marked improvement on our groups, not to mention the comfort in shooting the rifle with improved ergonomics.

About to leave for work. Got the TH-cam notification for a new Kit Badger flick. Called the boss. He understands.
Hahaha, well played. :)
Esprit De Kit Badger
HA! I have stopped meetings and pulled over by the side of the road to watch a KB vid as well. Glad I'm not the only one.

robo joe IVAN FOR PRESIDENT!
cool boss!
Looking forward to part two!
Ivan youve been killing it with the videos lately! Keep it up man!
Thanks for that Austin, will do!
Apologies... I watch everything you put on for us! Really appreciate the " Q " related content! More please sir!
I have a Krg long action on my
Remington chambered in 270 and totally gave it new life .8 MOA!
Told my wife I was getting a Side-chick, she said, "That's okay I already have one" Now I am just confused.
Should probably have a conversation about that...
Best laugh of the day! Thank you ….. and good luck with that :)
Hey, maybe you could share! ;)
You can go to the range with your wife man thats awesome mine is always to busy screwing the neighbors
either way im pretty sure that not a bad thing?
Yesaaa that’s my gun shop!
Nice! That place is great, cool people in there.
Nice . Very compelling demonstration.
Very nice comparison, thank you!
Talk about a great advertisement for the Side Chick!!!
It was a crap shoot with that used 700, but it sure cleaned it up. :)
$1200 for a stock.. I am good with my hogue stock glass bed, tac 338 bolt, Timney Calvin Elite trigger and Zeiss victory V8 scope. I get wonderful grouping.
Loving me some Side-Chick. Another excellent, informative video. These folk are knocking it out of the park with their products. Must buy more lotto tickets.
Agreed. This is the result of having three quarters of your staff degreed engineers.
HAGGLE That shit down SON!
Look up Camp Perry high power shoot. It was GREAT fun with a lot of really good marksmen
I had a PMO say he would trade comfortability for accuracy. Nothing matters more than being accurate as possible.
I literally watched this video to learn how to replace the chassis. Good video so no thumbs down but thanks for skipping through the part I needed lol. Sure is pretty though.
Haha, sorry man. :)
Hey take that back into that store and wait 10 days!!! You need to cool down and think about what your going to do... what? Freedom? Oh that’s what that looks like! I’m from SoCal please excuse me.
I feel your pain man...
best comment i've ever seen xD
I love it.
Damn, now ya have me wanting a Remington 700!
Local gun shop or pawn shop. I'm sure there is a stack of them. :)
Scope pretty high, doubt whether you would get much cheek weld, should have included a cheek pad for the testing imo. Biggest difference with the second stock/chassis is the "cheek weld"
This is ONE of your best videos sir thank you for doing it. Would you use a lead-sled next time?
Thanks for that! And, probably not, because I don't have one and they aren't a lot of fun to use.
Very nice filming Ivan!
Thank you Mark!
Anyone else cringe when he put that gun In the bed of the truck without a case? Lol
Love it
You have all the fun toys.
Well.... ....yes. :)
inherited my dads .300 win mag rem 700, but I'm going to just leave it alone in its original walnut stock.
Yes, I'd keep that one original.
I've always wondered why Q receivers have polymer instead of aluminum as a material to put around the grip. It's a complex thing to machine and not structurally important, but only now did I realize that it might have a slight advantage in reducing recoil transferring to the web of the hand, and allow for a higher degree of grip angles and positions for restricted states.
I'm not sure, but I doubt they (the engineers) did it on accident, but I don't have the answer. You'll have to reach out to them.
Keeps the price down
Cash and carry. Love it. 👍
Unfortunately I live in a state that have a 10 days waiting period. 😪
Lame state. :(
Wishing I can move out of here .
Nothing like paying and leaving with your toy then. I feel for you lol
Chris Bruce
Agreed. 👍😀
Great deal on a Remy 700 wish I could find one in my neck for that price exciting chassis review too
You can find those deals out there, often time on used gun racks, or even pawn shops.
i can find new tacs, or varmints for less than that just about any day of the week.
i got a friend of mine a sps tac 308 in a magpul hunter stock, 4 spare mags threaded muzzle, vortex diamondback for $350.
poke around the local shops, or pawn shops with a legit gunshops tacked on the deals are out there, you've just got to want it bad enough to find them.
@@hunterromano5562 nice thanks for the advice what neck of the woods are you from?
@@rebekah-chriss-k4872 Oklahoma born and raised, but I've bounced around all over the central/western for the past 7 years and landed in Colorado for the forseable future.
Love that pioneer had
In defense of the plastic stock @7:45, you have that scope mounted higher than I’ve ever seen.
No doubt. Mount the scope a foot off the barrel and wonder why you can't get a good cheek weld....
NH! Live free or die! I’m in the green mountains of Vermont.
I need this
Wow,that was a good video. I have to say, I can tell you guys started making that video early in the morning and you were not done until late in the afternoon. That is an all day event, thank you for making that video. And then, there is the editing work would probably takes just as much time as shooting the entire video. Thank you again Ivan.
I have never even looked at a Remington 700. I did not know that that rifle existed, I will have to check one out.
Barrel interference with a bipod? I did not even know that there was such an issue. Does that have to do with the Resonance of the barrel? Is it better to fire without a bipod than with a bipod? I assume it has to do with the way the barrel flexes as the round leaves the breach?
No problem man, thanks for watching.
As to the barrel, they whip when the fire. It is really fast and not usually that much. But if you have a stock that isn't free floated, you can press on the barrel when you load the bipod, this puts pressure on the barrel and will move your impact away from your actual zero.
Classy product name Q.
ayyy renarms is my go to LGS godbless. really good ppl there
That is a cool store Jake. :)
@@KitBadger They're really good with their deals and how they treat their customers. They're always ready to help whoever comes in.
You guys didn't mention the most important thing of all and probably the biggest factor of all. You eliminated bad bedding that caused stresses in the stock.
That’s nice, but I just can’t see spending $1200 on a chassis. I suppose it makes a bit of sense if you have a 700 in the safe already. Less so if you don’t. Especially when you can get an absolutely excellent rifle like the Tikka T3X Tac A1 for $1700. It folds and has features and product quality that are undeniably superior to the 700s produced in the past 10 years or so.
In fairness Scotty, everyone in the world makes a better 700 than Remington... :)
Kit Badger fair enough. There are some great 700 pattern barrels and receivers out there. But again, $$$$.
Q should make their own belt fed 300 blackout with Noveske.
The Golf Life They are developing an 8.6mm creedmoor (which I can’t wait for) so I would think they would want to use their proprietary caliber
I need the old stock yall pulled off the 700
You'll have to check the recycling... :(
Pretty much everything about the buying of the gun even the price had my jaw on the floor. In Australia it takes weeks even months for a " permit to Aquire" to come back from the government when you apply ( yes apply, its not a given that you can have the weapon you want but most times its no worries) and then when you go to pick up the rifle from the shop 5weeks after you paid for it you have to sign some stuff and when you leave it has to be in a case or kinda hidden away so it doesnt look like a gun to the public or you could get charged with brandishing a weapon in public. Its bs
Sounds like tyranny... :(
Sure is buddy
When all this virus bs is over I think I need a holiday in the USA for a few months
All it comes down to is the fact everyone's has to be tacticool these days and wants everything to look "tactical" instead of just getting your old gun and going to practice.
You had me wanting to go buy a M700 and do this. Until I looked up the $1200 price tag for just a chassis. There are a lot of guns in that style you can buy for just the cost of the chassis or less.
I'd go with something more in your price range then. Old rifles can be fun projects.
New Hampsha?! Where you from? Just started watching your videos. Great content
Thanks for watching James!
Could you take the side chick further with a smith? Like bedding and other things?
THAT'S SO AWESOME, IN CALIFORNIA WE HAVE TO WAIT 10 DAYS BEFORE WE CAN PICKUP THE FIREARMS!!!😒😒🙄🙄
I know, I lived there before moving to freedom. :)
@@KitBadger GREAT, GOOD FOR YOU!!👍 BUT SADLY NOW WITH VIRGINIA THEIR TESTING GROUND, THEY ARE TRYING TO FUCK YHE REST OF THE STATES THE SAME WAY IN THE FUTURE. IF DEMOCRATS TAKE OVER, THEY HAVE REACHED A POINT THAT THEY NO LONGER ARE HIDING IT, THEY ARE SAYING THEY WILL BAN GUNS!! BECAUSE EVERYONE HAS SEEN WHAT SNAKES THEY REALLY ARE.😉👉
Going to need a scope with eye relief far enough away to get a good sight picture. Additional position holes for the check riser may not be a bad idea for future versions or product variations
daviddhhd if its the same as the fix, it has multiple holes under it.
Nice
It’s an awesome chassis.
Awesome music, awesome Video. I guess next Time I'm in the US I have to get a side chick and bring it back home to germany.
Thanks Stefan, the Side Chick is pretty awesome, and probably easy to transport, since it isn't a "firearm".
@@KitBadger does it have export restrictions?
@@r0nb0h0ju probably falls under ITAR.
Lol!
Just got my hunters license and bought a rem 700 sps and have to wait 12 weeks before I get a license for it. You just took it and Walked out the front door with it. #sweden
America > :)
If you want to build up a cool rifle for hi power try a 03A3 recvr with a 1919A4 barrel..threads are the same as the recvr . Tack drvr at 1000 meters . Fun project
I've never done hi power, I've only heard of it. Are the matches still big anymore?
Hmm very interesting... i have the same stock as in this vid and a 18 inch bull barrel and a bipod on the stock and get 1/4 moa idk if you gave it a chance
His barrel is a thin hunting barrel, it makes a DIFFERENCE!! Is yours a custom match barrel?
can't wait to convert my 7mm mag. just kiddin
gucci stock with gucci groups, nice
Ya, that chassis cleaned it up a lot.
Hello Ivan I was wondering what you carry as edc?My first gun was glock42 because I was poor recently bought a glock 19.Im trying to broaden my horizons. What was date night drill gun? Thanks man love the videos
I carry different guns, in part for review. Right now I'm carrying a Sig P320 X Compact.
What's is up with the way you are holding the rifle in your right hand when you shoot?
Another great video 👍. Look forward to the next one. Need to win the lottery 😁
Hahaha, don't we all. :)
I have a pair of 700;s one in 223 the other in 308, they currently shoot with factory match ammo, 308- 1/4 moa at 200 yards, and the 223 1/4 m0a at 100 yards, that's 5 shot one hole groups. Will your stock make it better? Both rifles have grey Kevlar stocks and are parkerized with heavy barrels. can your modifications improve on these groups?
It isn't "my stock" and I don't know. It very well may, and at the very least improve the guns ergonomics.
For $1200 why wouldn't I just buy a better rifle
It is America, you could totally do that. :)
The 700 is a good rifle
@@Highgear145 what people tell me concerning my 700 and 770, "if you have to say it's good enough..." (it ain't) fuck em. i shoot bullet on bullet @ 100yrds in .308 all i need.
with that you will have a 1599 dls rifle🤣🤣
You could literally buy a Remington 700 pcr and still have $500+ for a scope
Will this fit a Remington model 700 BDL in 270 caliber ??? thank you
How can I buy that stock out
You likely would have gotten better groups with the original stock if the scope wasn't 14 feet above the barrel!
call me a fan boi, but loving these Q products.
They make amazing stuff...
This video is as exciting as Luke warm soup.
My favorite.
It may make sense for a lot of people (don’t know who) however that’s the same price as one of my Aero Precision AR10 builds. Except it’s minus an actual rifle. I just can’t see it. My rifles also shoot near 1 MOA with 175 SMKs. My bolt guns do better but they are magnums. I could see an extreme long range application for sure, however a 6.5 will not outrun a .300 RUM. It makes more sense to me to make a long action rather than a short. Short action cartridges can be built from the ground up in a semi auto AR platform. $1200 will get you there. Maybe I’m missing it, but I’d just take my money and build another gun.
You're not missing it, it just maybe isn't for you Thomas. :)
True enough. Just discovered the Christensen Arms MPR chassis. Save a hundred bucks, get long action, and trade some of the metal for carbon fiber. Good review anyway.
@@TheTmshuman nice, glad you found something!
Get yourself A Kinetic Research Chassis short action stock!!
this may be a dumb question but im in the process of buying a MODEL 700 SPS TACTICAL AAC-SD and want to get a new stock for it. are all the rem 700 stocks online compatible with with my model and or all rem 700 models?
i think the answer is yes i should be fine , but id feel much better if someone can verify :)
Will it take a savage 110 tactical 308
Not saying it happened, but it is a test that would be easy to throw. This is the only target shoot in which I would have discounted one flyer per group
There was too much competition between us to outshoot each other to throw it. :)
You live in NH?! I live in Northwood. I would love to help out if you ever needed. Also best range in NH you can recommend (not sig please) that has 300+ (ideally 500) meter range.
No, sorry Matt. I'm out in Idaho. :)
does it take long action rifles? been looking at a bergara (r700 footprint) in 300 win mag
No, only short action rifles.
@@KitBadger do they have any plans to expand into long action?
@@Absolute_Goober I'm not sure, try reaching out to them.
@@KitBadger 👍
You get your guns much faster than we do in South Africa. I bought my Remingtom 783 WM .308 beginning Sept '19 and the license request was approved only mid Feb '20. Then 2 months more to have it issued by the DFO. So minimum 7 months if everything is in order and the application is approved the first time. The vehicloe that tramspoted the licenses to the DFO got hi-jacked last week so, we start afresh.
Damn man, that is terrible...
@@KitBadger Ja it is.
At 2:07 why does the guy look both incredibly concerned as well as surprised?
He is probably incredibly concerned and surprised....
Did the dealer tick the box, "Is known to me"?
FFL to FFL.
@timmybmn it does, and Mitch is a employee of Q, which also has their own. Easy day. :)
@timmybmn gotta kill that apathy best thing I ever did.Smart man.
Watch the documentary about rem 700s going off with no trigger pull
That’s probably a contributing factor into their bankruptcy... :)
So did they quit making this stock?
Had to like it just because of Tim Armstrong
I like your style.
Id's there a configuration that works with .270 ammo?
Any Short Action with AI pattern magazines.
also, he's from texas confirmed. he put that in the bed of the truck instead of the back seat like it was an ak or something.
i thought that too haha! from texas as well and was like ah, a man of culture i see
Can these be purchased without any blue accents?
I don't know, you'll have to ask.
So it will hold a 300 mag ?
Can I get a link on where I can find out what the prices on it
Links on the post, can't direct link with TH-cam... kitbadger.com/building-the-side-chick-by-q/
Wow
dose this work with 30-06?
Link to Part 2 Please?!? Anyone?!?
Thanks in advance!!

Or this: kitbadger.com/qs-side-chick-chassis-a-used-remington-700-a-second-chance-part-2/
Will a short action magnum fit the chassis?
If it’s a short action 700.
Where can we buy this ?
Ill take em all day at that price
Will it take a 700 chambered in .338 Remington Ultra Mag?
Any short action.
This is a outrage .. no 10 day wait ?
Gotta love a good jaw weld
Scope seems a little to far from barrel for my taste
Came here to post that.
Is that a bull by, or a heavy barrel?
Heavy if memory serves.
By chance, would anyone know where I can land a new heavy stainless 26" 5R barrel for Remington 700 in 7mm Remington mag fluted and threaded for a muzzle brake?
Scope super high
stock looks great but for a used remington 700 you're looking at 900$ and the stock is 1800$. for that price to perform only a 1 MOA is terrible. I think you would be better off getting a Tikka and an MDT chassis (tikka are well under 1 MOA all day) even with that being said if a modern rifle isnt doing a half MOA it really isnt up to snuff now a days.
Will this work with a rem 700 30-06?
Only short actions.
I’ve got a Remington 700 in 270 cal. Would this fit my rifle?
I don't think so, that is a long action isn't it?
I think he need's to make one for a long action.i have an old 30-06 i would love to have this on...
I inherited a 700 in .270. what do you think?
It will breath new life into it. Unless you want to keep it in its stock configuration for sentimental reasons.
Why do they load the rounds one at a time?
Probably doesn’t have a magazine with that stock
Im looking for a chasis for a remington 700. Know anyone who has one for sale
Meh. It’s neat if you’re on the Q train I guess but it doesn’t do anything any other chassis out doesn’t already do. Looks cool though.
Lighter, folding stock, stronger mounting system (Q Cert).
Kit Badger MPA BA ultra lite, XLR element magnesium, MDT LSS-XL all the same weight or lighter. All available with folding stocks. All half the price or less. There’s more but those are just 3 from the top of my head. It does look better than all of them though so I’ll give it that at least.
@@xBiGxKiNGx I'm not familiar with those. How do they lock up? One of my favorite elements on the Q stuff is actually their hinge. It is amazingly stiff.
