So I'm having trouble seeing what cal's they are offering them in. I was looking at this rifle on their site a couple weeks ago but didn't see anything on caliber so I assumed it was announced but not out yet. Looks like an original sendero, what's the price point, for those that have ordered? At that price it kind of kicks the sendero in the teeth. I hope it doesn't have the Model 700 LV finish, kind of cheaply I think. Interesting, may wait for a 25-06 and a 6,5 something

God forbid If Remington would build one in .260 .......Or a .280 , or a 7mm saum. they have let their own three best lighter long range calibers die !

Local funstore has one each in 30-06, 300 Winchester, and 7mm Remington magnum. The stock on them has a weird feel to it, like a solid piece of Styrofoam. Felt pretty good in the hands, in spite of that. Price was $699, as I recall. Was thinking about it..... Kaiser Norton

I looked at some today as well. They had 4 caliber in stock: 25-06, 7mm RM, 300WM, and 300 RUM. Seem like nice rigs. Tags all said $699. Stock fit me well and it was tempting but I passed, at least for now...

Seems like the Remington heavy barrels I've had in the past were accurate, but fouled so badly they lost all accuracy after 10-15 rounds. Maybe I'll try some of that Tubbs final finish bore treatment on this one, because I did just order one from Bud's. Neverbeen a problem with my Remington's that way. Has the new gun showed up yet?What do you here? Magnum Man

I checked with Scheel's last week and the guy there said a limited run of stainless models will be available and he is checking on price.
I received Cabela's flyer but their price seems a little even on sale. They do have coupons though.

So...has anyone received a rifle yet.
I'm having a hard time believing they have a b/c stock w/aluminum bedding for $700. Just way too good to be true?

I really wanted one of these in 7 RUM.... I think they were on aremington's website for about 5 minutes, never to be seen again.
This is a shooting forum, there is no place here for logic.

Checked them out at a local gunshop and Cabelas last week. They are long and yet feel ok other than the forend which is like holding on to a 2x4 the narrow way. Was looking at the one chambered for the 300 Ultra Mag and thinking that the bolt face dia is right ,the mag box IS LONG enuf a guy could just screw off the barrel and get one chambered for the 6.5 SAUM. Into the cool hot sh*t for less than $1200. Magnum Man

![[Linked Image]](http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y295/Marksman6mmbr/Firearms/DSC_0740_01_zps8297c309.jpg) Just picked up my 30-06 Long Range tonight. The stock is in fact aluminum bedded and the barrel is fully free floated. First thing I did was swap the trigger for a Rifle Basix 8oz-24oz model. The base I choose sits my 50mm scope a little high with low rings, so I might add a cheek pad of some sort. Overall, I'm a happy camper.

Who'da thought Rem would ever do a varmint weight 30-06.
