I have a Rem 700 LA Stainless Classic 257 Roberts that I was thinking about selling. I bought from a local gun shop a few years back and it's been sitting in the safe ever since. Looks like it has not been fired or carried much at all. The SS Classics in .257 was a limited run by a major distributor. Made in 1999. It has a 22 in bbl, std sporter contour. Barrel is not tapped for open sights.






I have 5 boxes of new Winchester brass to go with it.



I also have a Bell and Carlson stock that I bought used that I was told was a new model KS stock. It's for a BDL with a std bbl channel. The stock is in good shape. It had been bedded (but not to this rifle) and has aluminum pillars. It has a Pach Decelerator pad. The inletting for the barrel shank is slightly larger that the barrel on the 257. I placed the barrel action in the stock for some pictures, but it has not been fitted or bedded to the stainless 257 action.

I'm asking $900 for all of it, plus shipping.
If you're interested, I can post more pictures.

Thanks
Mark

To answer a couple of questions;
The B&C stock weight is 28oz and it does not have a full length alum bedding block, just pillars.
Thanks

You guys sick of me yet? This will be the last ToTheTop for a while.

Still looking for a Rem Mtn Rifle in 257 Roberts. Was working on a deal that fell through.

Thanks to all.

I know were one is for sale but it is not cheap they were asking 15 or 1600. the gun is beautiful and well worth the money. call me if you want and i can get you a number to the place that they are sell it at.

Ed- thanks for the offer, but that is a touch more than I am willing to spend. I don't love the kid that much.

I found a Remington 700 Limited Edition 257R with a Zeiss
scope today, but its $1150.00. Stainless, fluted barrel,
really nice looking rig. Drop me a pm if interested.

THANKS for all the help guys--

I found a Rem Mtn Rifle in 257Rob LA at a fair price. Thanks for everyone looking and helping. Great resource.

FWIW, as cataloged, the Remimgton 700 Mountain Rifles in 257 Roberts would have been built on a short action. The only cataloged long action 700s in 257 Roberts were the 1983(?) 700 Classics.

Jeff- Remington did a special run of LA in a mtn rifle, 257rob, which are not cataloged.

Many great people on this site. Thanks!

OK, now you need to post some photos.
