Description
The Remington Model 700 North American Custom .270 Win 24″ Barrel Desert Tan Stock is a purpose-built, modern hunting rifle. It combines the legendary reliability of the Model 700 action with a lightweight, weather-resistant stock and a free-floated barrel for consistent, long-range accuracy right out of the box. This is a serious tool for the dedicated hunter who demands precision and durability in the field.
I’ve put a few boxes of Hornady Precision Hunter ammo through this rifle, and here’s what stands out. The desert tan stock isn’t just for looks—it’s a tough, synthetic shell that shrugs off moisture and rough handling. The 24-inch barrel is free-floated, which means it doesn’t touch the stock, allowing it to vibrate consistently with every shot. That consistency is what builds real confidence when you’re lining up a shot at distance. The trigger is crisp and clean, a huge step up from some factory offerings, and it breaks right around 3.5 pounds. Look, the .270 Winchester is a classic American hunting cartridge for a reason—it’s flat-shooting, has manageable recoil, and is more than capable for everything from whitetail to elk out to ethical ranges. This rifle does that legacy justice.

This rifle is for the hunter who views their firearm as a precision instrument, not just a tool. It’s for the Missouri whitetail hunter who spends all season in a tree stand, the western hunter chasing mule deer across open country, or anyone who appreciates a rifle that’s ready to perform without needing immediate upgrades. If you’re tired of wondering if a flyer was you or the rifle, this platform provides the inherent accuracy to take that variable off the table. The investment of $1640.95 gets you into a rifle that’s already several steps beyond a basic factory model.
Pros: The out-of-the-box accuracy potential is excellent, thanks to the free-floated barrel and good trigger. The stock is genuinely tough and low-maintenance. The .270 Win is widely available and a supremely effective hunting round. The action is a proven design, and the rifle is drop-in ready for quality optics from brands like Leupold or Vortex.
Cons: At this price point, some might expect a fully bedded action, which this stock does not have. The synthetic stock, while durable, won’t have the classic feel of a walnut stock. As with any firearm purchase, an FFL transfer is required.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is the barrel threaded for a muzzle brake or suppressor?
A: No, this specific North American Custom model features a standard, crowned muzzle. It is not threaded from the factory.
Q: What kind of accuracy can I expect?
A: With quality ammunition, sub-MOA (Minute of Angle) accuracy is a reasonable expectation. I was consistently getting groups just under an inch at 100 yards with factory match-grade ammo. The free-floated barrel and good trigger are the key contributors here.
Q: Does it come with scope bases installed?
A: The receiver is drilled and tapped, but scope bases are not included. You’ll need to purchase separate bases and rings. It uses standard Remington 700 long-action patterns, so options from Warne, Talley, or Leupold are all compatible.
This Remington Model 700 North American Custom is a modern hunter’s rifle built on a legendary platform. It’s available at firearms-missouri.com for Missouri residents and nationwide to compliant states. If you’re ready for a rifle that matches your dedication to the hunt, this one deserves a close look.
