Depending on the year of your 700 your trigger is likely adjustable. There are 3 adjustments-take up (which is what you seem to want), overtravel and pull weight. Take up has a screw which limits how far the trigger moves before it releases....in your mauser rifle you have a 2 stage trigger with a lot of take up. In your 700 you have a single stage trigger with essentially no takeup. You can loosen up the take up screw and that will give you some movement in the trigger. The overtravel adjustment limits the amount the trigger moves after the sear releases. There is a screw to adjust it and also one that increases or decreases the amount a spring bears on the trigger to change the pull weight. Look at some of the remington 700 websites for detailed info on which screws do what and how much is safe.
hope that helps
