Just be sure that your FFL prints "Pistol" or "Other" in Box 4 when they fill out the transaction record.

The long and short of it is... yes.

Fair enough, and interesting that something so classically a "rifle" is sold as a completely bare action that way.

Remington is selling the 700 as a pistol now as well.

I think I can build something more to my liking than just buying this.

In addition, there are tons of Remington 700 and clone receivers available. Primarily for people building custom precision guns, but there is a fair bit of market out there now. I’d really like to build on a savage action, but the receivers are generally more expensive, and parts/ stocks are a little less common.
