I'm not sure if this is a rifle that RemArms got in the bankruptcy from the former Remington which they are now selling. (The bankruptcy papers show they got a lot of completed rifles and parts.) Or if it is a newly produced CDL that was made after the new owners took over. I did confirm with the seller that this is a new gun from the new RemArms that they just received. I'm rooting for Remington. I'm glad to see they are at least shipping guns that aren't their cheapest models, again. https://ammoandarmsstore.com/27007/

I know PTG has a lot of 700 barreled action and parts that I think all came from the bankruptcy. Reports of PTG using their bolts to complete the builds are common. Most are reporting that the barrels were short chambered.

Wow, that big, nasty .243 must kick like a sumbitch!
It's you and the bullet, and all the rest is secondary.

Unless you're shooting hundreds of rounds there is no need for a pad on a 243. Most of my custom rifles have a 1/2" pad to prevent them from sliding on the floor when stood up against the walland to prevent breakage on wood stocks.

Maybe they use that fugly pad to save wood. LOL. If Remington wants to hit the ground running, they better offer rifles that are sub MOA right out of the box. There are a lot of factory rifles that are crazy accurate these days.

They gotta save on wood so they can hand over 33 million bucks to the Sandy Hook people. Dumbasses. Same remington, different owners apparently.

Well, it is a long action in the picture, so it's a stock picture in the ad.

Probably some Frankenstein rifles collected from the leftover parts bins like Savage was known to do between bankruptcies.

Barrels seem too short or too long to me. What ever happened to 22 barrels for non magnums?

I'm glad to see they are at least shipping guns that aren't their cheapest models, again. https://ammoandarmsstore.com/27007/I hope this works out well for all; customers, RemArms, dealers... Everybody. Hopefully they're good rifles. I bought a pair of Remington 700 CDL's years ago, in 25-06 & 30-06, before Remington changed to the very thick recoil pad. They have been wonderful hunting rifles taking elk, mule deer, pronghorn, coyote, black bear, wolf and grizzly as well as a few varmints. Those things were and are very good rifles. With good attention to quality control, the new ones can be good rifles as well. If Remington is getting another chance, I sure hope they build wonderful Remington 700's. Regards, Guy

It's a youth stock with a thick pad.

Saw some new 870s today at Cabelas. Totally underwhelmed with fit. Looked really, really cheap.
Some mornings, it just does not feel worth it to chew through the straps!~

I like the hard butt plate on 700 BDL Custom Classics. If I need a recoil pad, I slip a Pachmayr on it. They're good quality and keeps the butt plate and screws from getting bunged.
