For Sale: Remington 700 KS Mountain Rifle

For Sale: Remington M700 KS Mountain Rifle chambered in 270 Win, factory Brown Precision stock and original Walker Trigger.

The rifle is in excellent condition, one of the best I've seen. The jeweled bolt shows no wear. The bluing would rate at ~ 99% and the stock would rate at ~ 95% conservatively. The stock has no scratches, scrapes or hunting wear, only the "chips" that I have documented in the photos. The butt pad is in excellent condition and is not the type that turned gummy. Pressure points are still present and the stock has not been bedded, except for the factory bedding at the recoil lug.

I am only asking what I paid for the rifle and will send a receipt to serious buyers. The rifle is $1185 shipped to the lower 48, but I am willing to work with guys in AK on shipping. The rifle will ship in a new hard plastic case and I will include a set of NIB Talley one-piece rings/bases; 1" low, extended, matte finish.

Payment accepted: Personal & Business checks (funds will be verified), USPS Money Order, Certified Check or PayPal Family/Friends. The first publicly posted "I'll take it" followed by a PM with payment arrangements wins.

The price is firm, not interested in trades at this time.

The pictures speak for themselves, but if you have additional questions, please do not hesitate to ask.

Can someone brighter than I tell me why some of the pictures did not display; only the links are shown?

Can’t help on that front, but very nice!
Don’t see many 270s come up for sale.
Probably Remington’s best effort - in my eyes anyhow.

The photos are showing up just fine on my iPhone

Item is temporarily unavailable.

That's an old one! Love the jeweled bolt as a few years later they left them all Parkerized. Sweet find for a righty.........tomato stake for a lefty.

Here's the scoop on the rifle. An observant, interested individual noticed the machining on the bolt face seemed to be askew; shame on me for not inspecting it. I compared it to two other M700s I have in my safe and he was correct.

I wasn't comfortable selling the rifle as-is, so the entire rifle is headed back to Remington for a new bolt or at least that's what I was told over the phone.

I will revive this thread when the rifle is returned and provide an update/documentation for the repairs.

I know the thread is temporarily inactive but to answer your earlier question, the "?1" after the "jpg" is what is keeping your pictures from appearing. Remove that so .jpg is the last thing before the ending [/img] and they will show up.

Just a thought, rather than absorbing the cost of return shipping to Remington & the extended wait, I'd send the bolt to Gre-Tan to get it bushed.

I appreciate the suggestion aalf.

For those that will, please check the thread below and provide me with your opinion.

Looks like all the concern is over nothing.

This rifle is still for sale.

ETA: the rifle was manufactured January 1989 and weighs 6lb 3.8oz according to my scales.

I have had several of these rifles and they were some of the most accurate rifles I have ever owned.

I’ve owned several at different times. And wonder now why I sold them. These along with the 40x are some of the best Remington ever made. Hasbeen

Bump. I've dealt with StudDuck before and he's good to go. Buy with confidence.

I've got two 700KS and two 7KS. They are all fantastic ways. Rems best efforts in my eyes.

I agree, they were some of the best or the best rifles Remington manufactured.

Thanks TexasPhotog, hope all is well.

Up.

Good Seller Bump.. My Best Friend Mike has one of these in 280 , it was ordered and made in 1988, I think he said it was a 6month wait. He would sell everything he owns before he sold that KS.

I appreciate the positive feedback from TexasPhotog & Oldelkhunter.

I'll entertain reasonable offers before listing on GunBroker.
