Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunting Rifles Anyone got a new Remington model 7 ss

Just wondering if anyone has one of the new stainless model 7's or has anyone seen one?

I have one in 260. At first it did not shoot well.I removed the mag box thinking it may be the issue but it did not help. After playing with it I discovered adding a shim under the recoil lug the accuracy really improved. I plan on bedding the action and removing the shim

Hairtrigger, is your Seven actually one of the new ones made this year? I keep hearing tidbits here and there that they have made a run of them but Remington's website says absolutely nothing about them and none of the dealers I use know anything about when they will show up.

About 3 months ago, I lucked into a 1998 built SS .308 that had no more than 20-25 rounds thru it. It looked NIB and of course no J-lock, no "X-Mark Poor" trigger. I put it into a new B&C AWR stock and added a VX2 2-7x33 in Talley ex-lows. Previous owner had the trigger smoothed to a crisp 3 lbs. My first inclination was to have Douglas rebarrel it to 7MM08 since right now I'm .308 poor but after taking it out once and using nothing but Hornaday Am. Whitetail 150s, it shot 2 three shot groups at .78 and .83" after sighting in and settling down. Way adequate for a tree stand whitetail rig. Now that I've pretty much decided to leave this one alone, I'd really like to hear some feedback or better yet, get my hands on a new one as a 7MM08 SS is on the agenda.

Thanks for the heads up. I have been waiting for some to show up in stock.

Thanks pseshooter. At $629 I don't see finding them cheaper anywhere else.

How are the stocks? I handled one at the Harrisburg NRA show and them seemed cheap! Thanks!

Probably the same stock that comes in the blued versions of the model seven. But I planned to replace the stock anyways none of remingtons stocks are really all that great just my opinion don't care for the sps style

Sorry, no not a new this year rifle

Ugh...none listed yet in 223.

Been Looking For a New 7 In S.S. In a 260. Glad To Here They'll Have The New Style Stock, While Not The Stiffest Stock Going. They Are Very Light. Both Mine Are In The 25 Oz Range..

Anyone seen the .223 or .260 for sale yet?

I already have a SS 7mm08 and 308 but wanted to see how the new ones compared to them but LGS said he cant get any. The big suppliers (like Buds) pre ordered the majority of the first run of them.

$629 from Buds is not a bad price at all. In the last couple of years Ive seen used ones in SS sell for $700-775.

I wouldnt expect 223 or 260 out until next year. Remington rep said 7mm-08 and 308 were the most popular calibers so Id bet they run those for a while.

Any news on these anyone seen one?

How about one in 300 WSM? Saw that listed in the new catalog.

I can't find a picture on the Web to see what the stock looks like

Same here pre, all I can find on the Rem. site is the blued version. Not in the centerfire section, new products, or anywhere else. I don't have a paper catalog.

John

I called Remington .223 are being made this month and december. .260 will be made in December.

I want to see a pic

Wrangler, did they say if the new Model Sevens were being made in the new factory in Huntsville, AL?

Did not say which factory I did not no there was one in AL now.

It was just built a while back I think

Do we know the twist on the 223??

FWIW, I have my FFL and had a 7mm-08 on backorder from Zander's since the first of the year. Yesterday I received an email from a sales associate asking if I was still interested in the rifle; I declined due to my recent rifle purchases from the Classifieds here.

Anyhow, the moral of the story is; Zander's only had one, but Remington has obviously manufactured the 7mm-08.

Bud's has the 308 and 243 in stainless have for a while now no picture

Still haven't found these in a store yet

I cant find any local dealers that have any in stock.

As They are taking their sweet time, there seems to be a lot of Tikka T3 SS's selling around the country.

I think most all of them were allocated to buds and the like.

Got one 7mm-08 SS in hand my buddy just bought, he wants me to bed it and tune the trigger. The new stock is way lighter than the old pebbled one from years back and the pad is a 1" Supercell. With a Prostaff 3-9x40 and steel mounts, it goes 6lb 10oz. It's a trim little rifle.

The wholesale price from major distributors is $617.00...so Bud's price is really good to say the least...

I am hoping the .223 is a 1/9 but not going to hold my breath...
