Weighing in at approximately 8.5 pounds, this rifle balances stability for precise shots with manageable carry weight for extended periods in the field. The 6.5 Creedmoor cartridge itself is a major feature—it delivers flat trajectory, high ballistic coefficient, and manageable recoil, making it lethal on deer-sized game out past 500 yards and a favorite for long-range target shooting. The Magpul stock is drop-in ready for the Model 700 short action, requiring no gunsmithing for installation, which means you get a factory-fit, rock-solid bedding interface right out of the box. That said, the real question is: what does this combination get you when the pressure’s on?
Who This Rifle Is For
This rifle is built for the practical marksman. It’s for the hunter in the Missouri Ozarks who needs a single, confident shot on a whitetail across a cut soybean field. It’s for the precision shooter developing their skills at a local 600-yard range. It’s for the individual who wants a dependable, modern rifle that can be accessorized with optics, bipods, and slings using the stock’s integrated M-LOK slots—compatible with popular accessories from brands like Magpul, Harris, and Vortex. When it comes to building a system you can trust, this Remington 700 Magpul configuration provides a superb foundation.
Pros & Cons
Pros: The legendary Remington 700 action offers proven reliability and aftermarket support. The Magpul stock dramatically improves ergonomics and modularity over traditional synthetic stocks. The threaded, 5-R barrel is a significant accuracy and utility upgrade. The Cerakote finish provides excellent durability for all-weather use. The adjustable X-Mark Pro trigger allows for a personalized break.
Cons: At around 8.5 lbs unloaded and without optics, it’s not the lightest mountain rifle. The 22-inch barrel, while excellent for handling with a suppressor, offers slightly less velocity than a 24 or 26-inch barrel. As with any precision firearm, realizing its full potential requires quality ammunition and a good optic, which adds to the total investment. The total price for this ready-to-run platform is $939.24.
