I think so too. I think the stock is a Brown.

Was thinking it would be a nice loaner if I had a handicapped visitor. But now I'm thinking it needs to leave my dwelling.

Errr... I think that is not a Remington. It looks like a Spyderco, or a cheap imitation, with the pocket clip installed improperly (upside down).











Ohh. You mean the rifle. Yes! KS with BP stock. Good grab and perfect for elk in the timber.

As some have already said, it's most likely a model 700 KS (Kevlar stock ) mountain rifle. It was only chambered in 35 Whelan with that particular grey stock in 1989. So the barrel code should indicate it was made sometime in 1989

Its not a standard rifle - those particular rifles were made by the Remington Custom shop.

They are also simply chambering stamped on the barrel. No Remington Arms, Ilion, NY, etc

I just sold one in a 300Win Mag; it's a KS Mountain Rifle that came from the Custom Shop. It was an early version with a satin blue finish and jeweled bolt.

Mine, well now Alan's weighed right at 7lbs for the bare rifle. It was made in 1986 with a Brown Precision Stock.

Nice rifle.
