Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunting Rifles Weight of Standard Rem 700 barreled action

Does anyone know the weight of a barreled action (everything but stock) of a Remington 700 ADL in 30-06 with a Sporter weight barrel?

Thanks

This used to be on brown precision’s website. It’s worth having around.


“The following weights of full actions (bolt, guard screws, trigger guard magazine liner, trigger assembly, recoil lugs, follower and spring) - everything except the barrel, stock, scope and mounts.

Remington 700 short ADL ..................2 lbs. 3 1/2 oz.
Remington 700 short BDL ..................2 lbs. 4 oz.
Remington 700 long ADL ...................2 lbs. 6 1/2 oz.
Remington 700 long BDL ...................2 lbs. 7 oz.
Remington 600 ................................1 lb. 15 oz.
Remington 788 long (.243, .308) ........2 lbs. 11 oz.
Remington 7.....................................2 lbs. 2 oz.
Mauser Mark X ..................................2 lbs. 15 oz.
Sako medium (current production) ......2 lbs. 5 oz.
Sako long ........................................2 lbs. 13 oz.
Ruger short dovetail receiver ..............2 lbs. 6 oz.
Ruger long dovetail receiver ...............2 lbs. 8 1/2 oz.
Winchester Model 70 post-64 .............2 lbs. 13 oz.
Weatherby Mark V ............................3 lbs. 3 oz."

2 lbs 6 1/2 ounces plus 2 lbs 11 ounces is 5 lbs 1 1/2 ounces.

Thank you.

At 22” the standard sporter in a .308 should be a few ounces less; I think 2lb 7oz ish. Nicking pits but I think 4 pounds 13 oz would be my wager.

A 24" SS bbl with .650" muzzle chambered for 30-06 weighs 40.7 ozs on my scale.

A 22" SS Mtn contour with .540 muzzle chambered for 30-06 weighs 31.8 ozs.

I was looking for that a while back--glad you posted it AK.

Based on these numbers, a Remington 700 ADL 30-06 with 22" Sporter barrel in a stock that weighs 26 oz should come in right at 6.5 pounds. That sound about right?

I guessed on the barrel weight by using Shaw barrels contour weights for Remington contours. But yes give or take 5 ounces you are in the ballpark.
