FOR SALE:

I have for sale what some may consider one of the Holy Grails of the Remington 40-X 22 Rimfires.

I'm selling this as a barreled action, as I never acquired the original XR stock when I purchased it.

This has a barrel code of DD, which makes it's manufacturing date in September of 1983.

This is a single shot model.

Serial number is 055XXX R

Research shows that this originally was a XR position rifle.

It has a 24" "Varmint" barrel, with a .870 muzzle diameter.

High gloss bluing reminiscent of that era, that I'd say is 98% +.

It currently has a full length picatinny rail on it, which I haven't taken off yet, & is not for sale.

Original factory 40-X trigger.

I bought this back in the 80's, and I believe I'm only the second owner.

Value is tough, as no one seems to have seen one for sale for comparison.

$2195.00 shipped to your FFL, who must accept from a private individual, no exceptions, & no trades.

Fantastic buy, if it was a sporter I'd bought it 40 minutes ago. I'd get a beautiful figured stock and my ultimate rimfire rifle desire would be fulfilled

They also made 40-XR sporters that were repeaters, they are big money now due to 700 or so ever built.

I had one several years ago, and sold it for $3100, that wouldn't buy a beater now.....

Correct, it fits a 700 inlet perfect. In fact the 40-X port cutout is the same as the 700 S/A as well.

Here's it's mounted in a McMillan Marksman, ordered for a 700 S/A, Varmint contour, with BDL bottom metal:
