A new pony in the stable.........

[.280 Remington]

And this one's got a little horsepower............

Picked up this 1986 Remington 700 classic in .264 Win Mag off of another forum and she finally arrived! A particular "pigeon" dropped off some boolits and brass and I've got some dies on the way. I already picked up some RL33 so now I just have to perform some "scope robbery" off another rifle........I just don't know which one to steal quite yet...........

Without further adieu, here's my new rifle..,

Looking good Mike!

You better hit that reloading bench my friend! That rifle should really sling em!

Very nice love those Classic's and the 264 WM is very cool I'm sure you will be pleased. Nosler and Norma brass is far superior to the Winchester brass when you start reloading for it.

Very attractive! 24 or 26" barrel?

 

[DrMike]

That is great, Mike. Congratulations on a very desirable rifle. It is handsome, to be sure. I have no doubt that it will put them out there for you.

Nice rifle and the Classic's usually are shooters, good find!

 

[.280 Remington]

Thanks fellas! I'm excited for sure!

 

[SJB358]

Very awesome Mike. Really looking forward to you shooting it. You now have the ultimate plains rifle.

 

[Guy Miner]

Very nice Remington! Congrats.

 

[Hegland]

Love those Classics. Simple and elegant. Looks like a beauty!

 

[Wincheringen]

They sure don't make them like that anymore.

Congrats and nice score! Classics and CDLs really trip my trigger on the 700s

I love the classic look of a nice 700. It should be a great rifle.
Look forward to range report with photos if possible :wink:

I would love to add another 700 Classic to the safe, and I'd be thrilled to death if it were a .264.

Or a .222, or a 7x57, or a .300 H&H or a....

Nice rifle!
