They are asking $950 plus shipping for the .17. There is a 221 fireball LVSF listed in the same ad for $825. Both are good deals. I've seen several LVSF's sell for over a G.

Most LVSF are currently selling at the $1k price. The ones on predator masters are in VG/excellent condition, and the guy is GTG- stand up fellow.

I don't have any but wish my beer budget allowed for champagne LVSFs. Bling is making me jealous.

I like my 708 LVSF. I've thought about dropping it into a Ti stock but the LVSF stock has grown on me.


When I die I hope I don't start voting democrat.

The ones already mentioned plus the 7MM-08, .308 and the Holey Grail of them all which was the .243, really tough to find. Nice little rifles.

I have a .204 and a .223. Both are tack drivers. A lot of folks don't like the LVSF stock but I am one of the few exceptions as I like it just fine.

Calibers .17 Rem, .221 FB, .223, .22-250. Then the limited years/runs of 7mm-08, .308, and as stated the rarest .243.

I have a 223 that I picked up for $500 and is a complete tack driver and a 7mm-08 that I got in an auction for $650 plus auction fees. I haven't shot the 7mm-08 much but I did drop it in an original SAUM Ti stock and it seems promising.

223 in original stock that I painted, it's now in a new replacement stock.

IIRC...???

Remington cataloged the following calibers in the LVSF:

.17 Rem
.204 Ruger
.221 Fireball
.223 Rem
.22-250 Rem

They produced the following calibers in a special run for one of the large distributors (Don't remember which one) and they weren't as widely available as the cataloged rifles:

.243 Win
7mm-08 Rem
.308 Win

I don't recall how long the LVSF was cataloged but it was a relatively short time... a few years. The special run rifles came on the scene towards the end of LVSF production.

I think Remington really misjudged the appeal of the LVSF rifles and could have easily continued it's successful production by expanding caliber choices... Oh well, it's not like they don't have a long history of genius marketing strategies!!! wink
