SOLD - Minty, Boxed Remington Model 700 Milspec 5R

Description

8/30/22 - This is a minty Remington Model 700 Milspec 5R in its original, matching box. It has a 20" stainless steel barrel with threaded muzzle and is chambered for .308. The Milspec 5R features the M24 barrel, the same as the M24 SWS which was the standard U.S. military sniper rifle adopted in 1988. This example has had the barrel broken in, but minimal use beyond that. It has the X-Mark Pro trigger with a detachable 10rd box mag, as well as the original mag. It has a composite stock that features full-length aluminum bedding blocks, and has a dual front swivel for convenient mounting of bi-pod and sling.

"The 5R rifling profile increases barrel life expectancy, accuracy and creates less fouling and bullet deformation over time. Whether you’re a bench rest shooter or longtime hunter, look no further for better reliability and precision. 5-R rifling is the same type of rifling used on the battle proven M-24 SWS. There are 5 lands as opposed to the normal 6 land configuration. Traditional lands are squared off at a 90 degree angle to the groove while the lands on 5-R rifling are tapered at 110 degrees which results in less bullet deformation. Also, none of the lands are directly across from one another. Both of these features lead to better accuracy and less fouling."
