I will post pics when I get home (on vacation). I have a 700 LSS mountain rifle also but mine is in .30-06 with a hinged floor plate mag (metal) and it is a J-lock version (if I remember correctly). I have SS Leupold 2-piece mounts on it and a silver finish Nikon 3-9x? (don't remember).


Enjoy the hunt while it lasts!

OK, that cinches it.

Gotta get the original MR .270 I got secondhand in 1988 out and zero it today and take a picture of it on a fencepost.

It's been settin' since I took a Wyoming antelope with it October '02. Put a 'fire bought 6x36 Leupy on it earlier this year. Time to fill another pickup truck bed with whitetail.

Picked this one up at a local pawn shop a few years ago, intention was rebarreling it to .250 Savage. Ended up buying dies for it, took it on an antelope hunt in Wyoming where it took 5 antelope (3 for me, 2 for brother in law), and haven't really touched it since. Nice gun, I just have some others I like better. Really is a shame.

Here it is the way it came from the pawn shop, topped with a Vari-XII 3-9x40. 7-08.

I realize they all look the same, looking for a McMillan Edge for the .280AI as we speak....

Not at all. I'd love to pick up any of the three. The thing is, I'd use those as-is. With the LSS, the barreled action would go into a Mickey EDGE that I bought before Remington stopped making them, then the barrel channel on the stock would be opened up a bit, and used for an SPS or the like.

I don't know if this is the only one but I bet there are not too many left handed KS Mountain rifles in 300 H&H, so chambered from the factory. I talked the custom shop into doing it almost 20 years ago. It has always been one of my go to rifles and has been over a lot of country with me. Lots of mule deer, whitetail and elk to it's credit, a few antelope, one caribou and a fair number of coyotes. It's been sheep camping a few times.

Nice rifles, Ken. Who did the bolt on the '06? Kampfeld? Did you have to specify the cut on the bottom of the knob?

A lot of nice Remingtons and it looks like Mountain Rifles and Leupolds are a great combination!

280 Rem. Thinking it weighs about 7.6 with a 2.5-8x36 VariX III on top. Love this gun, prints nicely with 140 Accubonds, Partitions, and 162 AMAXes. Yes there's a Bubba on there, but that hike in was a long one and I couldn't think of a better way wink

If a guy wanted to he could grab a 700 Ti/Mountain Rifle in 270/280/'06, top it with a 6x/3-9x/2-8x and pretty much rule the roost, IMO. But messin' with the other ones is just too much fun.

I have a LSS Mtn. rifle in 7mm/08, and I just picked up a blue one out of the pawn shop in 7mm/08 also. ( I thought it was a BDL at first glance, but when I got it home and started cleaning it, I realized it was a Mtn. rifle.) Will try and get pictures.

This is my custom mountain rifle. 7MM Remington Magnum that has been lightened and muzzle break added. Recoil is about like a 25-06. I'm planning on taking it on a elk hunt next year.

That looks like perfection. Change out the firing pin assembly for an aluminum one and the trigger guard to aluminum if you haven't already and you'll have an even 6 pounder. If that thing shoots that's about the holy grail of mtn rifles and it should wink

It's not engraved "Mountain Rifle" but not counting the 600, it's the lightest in the safe. Plain Jane SPS 243 with TLW's purchased from a fellow campfire member. Robbed the VX3 off the 600, shot three groups to check the 105's, bedded the action and shot three more to find the load.

I guess I am looking for another donor now.

Just a VX1 3-9 I took off an encore. Started with running 165 AB's over 55.6 gr IMR4350. Got dark on me so I couldn't shoot a group nor chrono after I got it on paper. Recoil was much less than expected, maybe my load is anemic.
I think it is the latest version; it will wind up at Bull Mtn Rifles in Billings for at least a Mickey game scout or rem classic later. I thought hard before getting the 06 and not 308. Still wondering if I should have gone 308.

Mine has started to show its age a little now. First gen Ti in 308 with a 2.5-8 VX3. I have a lower set of Talley rings on the way grin

[Linked Image]

I have had a few PMs about the stock. I don't know who originally made it. It was a ebay buy years ago for a rem 712,722,700ADL long action according to the ad. It was foam filled with a single layer of fiber glass over the foam. Had a sheet metal trigger guard/bottom metal. I have cut it in about every direction possible and glassed it back together over the years. It isn't perfect and gets tweaked a little when ever I fill like it but for the $25 buck I spent I'm happy! The whole package right now is only 5lbs 4oz.

Plain old OEM version. I think Remington does laminated better than most.

That's a 1st Gen Ti in a factory stock, but I just had it painted by a fellow campfire member, never can leave a black stock alone:)

It looks like this thread has been on hiatus for too long. Last year at a LGS, I noticed a 1993 stainless Remington Mountain rifle for sale for $400.00. It had a beat up Tupperware stock; I offered $350.00 and they accepted it. I figured I would see how it shot and would re-barrel it if necessary. I took it up to the range and it shot 1.5" groups, so I decided to make it into a lightweight elk rifle.

I ordered a Bell and Carlson stock, had the bolt fluted and skeletonized by Kampfeld, ordered an aluminum bolt shroud, and a lite steel firing pin from Gretan.

I bedded the recoil lug and free-floated the barrel. It now consistently shoots the 130 grain TTSX less than an inch. Here's a pic of it on a cow elk I took the other day.

It weighs 6.5 pounds as shown with Talley lightweight rings and a 2x7 Leupold scope. Best of all, it's chambered in the hard-to-find .27-300 DCI.

Just found this thread, I'll try to get some pics up.

Father bought me a 270 adl mountain stainless synthetic when I was 14, pretty much all I hunted with for the past 25 years. If I'm not mistaken, the adl mountains are fairly rare (not that that means anything, I think it was a special run in the early 90s). Gun kicks like a mule.

A year or so ago, I ran across a wood/blued 308 mountain rifle. I think the lgs just thought it was a old school full size bdl and didn't know what they had. I think I dated it late 80s. Anyway, I completely redid the stock, bedded the action, installed a new pad, timney trigger, cleaned up the metal to almost new, topped it off with a 2-8 nikon monarch. Its a sweet setup.


Ran across another wood mountain rifle in 280 in a rough part of town pawn shop couple weeks ago, about the same era as the last one I found. It was topped off with good steel rings and bases and a gloss leupold vx2. It was tempting but if its around next time I check that store out it may come home. Wasn't too out of line, marked 650, but you could easily take 100 bucks of it. Buddy picked up a early 90s marlin 39 that had some of the best walnut I've seen on one, $389....it was still there from where he looked at it 6 months ago.
