The rifle’s overall length of approximately 46.5 inches demands a specific use case—this isn’t a brush gun. The weight, typically around 9.5 to 10.5 pounds unscoped, aids in recoil management and stability from prone or supported positions. At a price point of $710.82, it represents a significant value, bundling a premium aftermarket stock with a core Remington 700 barreled action. This package is drop-in ready, requiring no gunsmithing to achieve a solid, reliable fit between action and stock. It’s available at firearms-missouri.com for Missouri residents and nationwide.
Who This Rifle Is For
This rifle is for the shooter who measures distance in hundreds of yards, not feet. It’s for the hunter pursuing elk or mule deer across canyon country, where shots are long and wind is a constant factor. It’s equally suited for the precision rifle competitor or long-range enthusiast who wants a capable, out-of-the-box foundation. The .300 Win Mag cartridge is a serious round—powerful, with noticeable recoil and muzzle blast. That said, the rifle’s heft and the stock’s design help mitigate that punch, making it manageable for an experienced shooter. You’re not buying this for plinking; you’re investing in a tool for a specific, demanding task.
Pros & Cons
Pros: The Bell & Carlson stock is the standout, offering immediate rigidity and ergonomic benefits over a standard synthetic stock. The 26″ barrel fully utilizes the .300 Win Mag’s potential. The Remington 700 action has unparalleled aftermarket support for triggers, rails, and chassis systems. You get a complete, capable long-range platform at a very competitive price.
Cons: The .300 Win Mag generates significant recoil and ammunition cost—practice gets expensive. The rifle’s length and weight make it cumbersome for mobile hunting or shooting in tight spaces. It’s a specialist’s tool, not a general-purpose firearm.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is this rifle ready to shoot, or do I need to add parts?
A: The rifle is functional out of the box. However, for long-range work, you will need to add a quality optic, a scope mount or base (compatible with standard Remington 700 short-action bases—note this is a long-action magnum), and likely a bipod. Rings and bases from brands like Warne, Leupold, or Nightforce are common starting points.
Q: Can the stock be adjusted for length of pull or cheek height?
A: The Bell & Carlson M40 stock on this model is a fixed, traditional-style tactical stock. It does not feature adjustable cheek risers or length of pull spacers. Its ergonomics are designed for a consistent, repeatable prone or supported position.
Q: What’s the effective range of this rifle in .300 Win Mag?
A: With proper optics, quality match-grade ammunition, and a skilled shooter, the .300 Win Mag is capable of accurate fire on target out to 1200+ yards. For ethical hunting on large game, most consider its reliable effective range to be out to 800-1000 yards, depending on bullet selection and conditions. Remember, at these distances, understanding wind and ballistics is non-negotiable.
Look, if your mission involves engaging targets at distances where holdover is measured in mils, not inches, this Remington 700 Long Range configuration provides a serious foundation. Its value lies in the integrated, no-fuss system—you get a proven action, a cartridge built for the task, and a stock that supports precision, all for a price that leaves room in your budget for a good scope.
