Remington Picture Post
« on: March 20, 2009, 06:11:06 AM »
Alright, it has been at least a long time if ever since we have had a topic like this one.  I will start out and hopefully some of you chip in with your own contributions.  Here is my 5R wearing a McM A4, with my 16x SS on it (for sale at the moment as well).  I'm currently waiting on a backordered SIII 6-24x to throw up there.


Once I get my SPS Tac finished I'll post that up here as well, it's currently waiting on a McM A5.

  I've always been a Remington fan, and here's a few i've hunted with for many years.  They have put a lot of meat in my freezer..

  This is my custom 700, chambered in .338-06.  I've harvested everything from moose, brown bear, caribou on down with it.  It's been in my hands many a time as i crawled through the alders on brown bear hunts,



  and has worked very well on putting moose meat in my freezer too.



  When i was a kid, i grew up with my dad's Remington double 12 in my hands, it was made in 1905.  As an adult, it was pretty beat up, and in need of a LOT of repairs...  So, i got it from my dad, and fixed it up to better than new, so i could continue to hunt with it.





  Another Remington i've always really liked was the 541-S's.  The problem is, they only came in RH and i'm left handed.  So, i converted one to left hand, and put it in a std. Rem. sporter walnut stock.  The only bad part about these 22's, are the clips.  I wish Rem. would have spent some money on making "steel" clips for this series of rifles.



  For a time, i was shooting Remingtons 5mm Rem. mag. and found it to be a GREAT round!  But, it had the same problem as the above above rifle, as in that they were RH.  So, i also converted one of them to LH.



  Anyway, that's a few of my fav. Rem's. that i own and have put a lot of miles on!

Here are a couple of projects I picked up. 

This 7mmRM will be getting a walnut 700 BDL magnum stock.



This .270 will be getting a new 700CDL stock.  I just need to order the bottom metal.
