Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunting Rifles Remington 700 .250 Savage

I'll post some pics after I take possession.

That's so [bleep] stupid. No way in hell I would ever live there, no way.

Amen to that but, the cancer is creeping to other states as well.

Indeed it is.

Is anyone currently manufacturing rifles in .250-3000?

Salvage makes an american classic and weather warrior in .250 salvage, and cooper offers the 54 in .250 salvage.

Ruger makes random runs of a 77 RSI in .250 salvage, I picked one up new a couple months ago from Bud's.

Its much worse here. No autos, not even auto shotguns. No handguns.

Apply for a "permit to acquire" - for which you pay thirty bucks - and wait A MONTH while they determine if they are going to issue it! THEN you can pick up your rifle.

I assume that's a Zastava mini Mauser? Hard to tell. Nice one, got any more pics?

Getting jealous Guys !! I've got to get around to building a 250 Savage on a donor Remmy Model 7 I have laying around......

Good find on your Remington 250 Savage. I'd had a 250 Savage rifle bolt rifle on my to buy list for a number of years. Seldom found one and what few I did were out of my price range. Finally gave up the search and had a Swede 96 action barreled in 250Savage. I really do enjoy shooting this rifle.

A Model Seven CDL would make a nice 250.

I don't have very many pictures of it but I do have a few.

One of my daughter holding it:


Here are the other two pictures that I have:




Kevin Weaver built the rifle and from what I know of the build it is a Pac Nor barrel 1:10 twist High Tech Stock 12.5" LOP. Kevin extended the magazine to the rear and moved the bolt stop to allow the longer bolt travel. I can't run any bullets heavier than 100 grain there just isn't room (unless I use RN) even with the extended magazine. Then there is the fact I can't remove a loaded round from the chamber easily, I have to pull the bolt to get it out. Spent cartridges have no problems ejecting though.

I think these few problems with the rifle stopped Kevin from making anymore. However it has been a fun little rifle to play with, and my daughter uses it from the blind on deer hunts in OK. I probably wouldn't let her hunt with it outside of a controlled situation like the blind.

I picked off a 250 in a Classic in winter with a boat load of ammo to boot. There were two on Armslist the other day, one 700 one 110. 250-3000 is usually hidden under 257 Bob. My wife has a 250 on a Mohawk, sweet but WAAAY too short for normal non-midget folks. I thought about restocking it but the alimony would make it prohibitive so I scarfed up the 700 C

Thanks Taylorce1. I was going to ask how they fitted the 250 Sav into that action. I looked into it as a project but got waved off for some of the reasons you mention.

Yours'n sounds pretty unique as it is and good to see it was able to be done.

As it is I think I might get one made up in 6.5 Grendel instead. Yours look great though.

Awesome Classic TXDave!

Since we're showing pics of our Bambino's..., and we don't have a handle bar thread:



Model 7 - 250 Savvy in a Brown Precision KS.

DMc. Nice looking rifle. Like your bike too I had a trail 90 probably 40 years ago and enjoyed it a lot. I noted yours is a 110 and didn't realize they ever made anything but the 90. A little more juice would not have been a bad thing if they made a 175 or 250 I'd get one today. Thanks for a memory trip.

Bangeye, I believe 79 was the last year for 90's. Mine's an 82. 1771 original miles and it'll do 50mph with an adult on board. Coolest thing about these bikes is the lower transfer case you can switch to for hill climbing. Interestingly, these can still be purchased (new) in New Zealand, as they have a postal contract with Honda. (So parts are still available from Honda.)

After market spring-loaded GPS handlebar mounts do double-duty holding a rifle securely.
