Stop me before I buy a new Remington
I have to admit to owning a number of 20th Century Remington bolt guns to include an M1917, a Model 30 (the commercial 1920s version of the M1917 with better fit and finish), a few early 700s including a walnut-stocked BDL and a Sendero, et. al.
But I haven’t bought one made in the past couple decades.
However, I ran across this in Dallas last week:
It’s the Model Seven Threaded, a .308 Win or .300 BLK chambered bolt-action that weighs just 5.5-pounds and is carbine length with a shortened stock and 16.5-inch barrel.
That Kuiu Vias scheme…
Now that would really be something for swamp deer (or the increasing infestation of feral hogs) in the dense underbrush of the Pearl and Pascagoula river systems that I like to call home– and when coupled with a nice .300 subsonic and a decent .30 caliber can (I was taken by OSS Suppressors new HX QD 762 Ti series at the ASA Shoot), I could see it as a very quiet little rifle that is still good out to 600 yards or so.
More on the Remington in my column at Guns.com.
This is a gun that has also really intrigued me, but there is little to no information online (at least I haven’t been able to find any) about it. If you now own one of these any feedback you can give would be much appreciated
