Anyone shoot one?
Found a 308 in mint condition for 600.
.
Deal or no deal?

That the one that came with an HS stock ?

99.9% sure my buddy has one in 22-250. I've shot his. Good gun.

I didn't know it came in 308.

Either way, $600 is a deal.

I think the base model 700s go for ~$500 now

Didn't know remington has made a good gun for quite awhile

These models are ~20 yrs old

Gotcha

2004 was the end of production.
Not sure on the HS stock but synthetic, stainless, heavy futed with a cut porting in the barrel.
Trigger feels real nice.
Going to come home after mandatory 10 wait

I’ve got one in 22-250, shoots like has eyes!

I like 250s.......
Only other 308 I have ever shot is a worked up grand.

10 day wait!!! You need to move to a free state.

You’re in the Remington “gray area” with that one.

Could be a shooter, could be a door stop.

2000-2006 Rem 700s are a real crap shoot. I wouldn’t even consider a 2006-2020 model.


That era will most likely be a B&C stock. I think they dropped HS precisions around 2000 to save money. (Not that there’s anything wrong with the B&C stocks, they’re every bit as good as the HS ones for half the cost).


$600 is a steal. Worst case scenario you tear it apart, have the action trued and you’ll have a great SA to build with for a fraction of the cost of a “custom copy”.

True on rem quality but amazingly I bought my daughter 700 in 7mm-08 new I think she was 9 so 2011. It may have been on the shelf for a while being a basic left handed youth model. But its my favorite rifle in the house. Shoots about 3/8 to 3/4" with factory hornady American whitetail. I we have killed truck loads of deer with it. Absolutely lucked out with that one.

The secret to having a real accurate gun I've figured out is to call every flyer a pulled shot

BUY IT! Don't think twice, buy it!
