Remington 700 long range in stainless?

[Eric M]

A friend of mine told me he saw these guns with stainless barrels at Sportsmens Warehouse, but I can't find them listed anywhere. Cabelas only sells them blued, Sportsmens website only shows blued, and the Remington website only lists them as blued. All the reviews I'm looking at are showing blued barrels. So does anyone know if these ever come in stainless? Thanks

Haven't seen them in SS.

Are you looking for a rifle to pack around or take into the high country?  Those rifles are very heavy and quality glass will add to that big time.

I think the long range is carbon steel only. The Sendero is stainless and there is a mountain stainless!

Mine is 11 pounds, 6 oz all up.
 
That is with a relatively small scope at 16 ounces.

Did good keeping it lighter

Well thanks for the replies. Kind of hoping for stainless.

I'm not super excited about adding that much weight. I looked at the mountain rifle but not sure about the barrel thickness. Probably just carry my .270. It's 9 or maybe 10 with the scope.

Take a look at the link, there are six stainless models, just about any style or weight you could want:
http://www.remington.com/rifles/bolt-action
MODEL 700 CDL SF
MODEL 700 SPS STAINLESS
MODEL 700 VARMINT SF
MODEL 700 VTR SS (STAINLESS STEEL)
MODEL 700 MOUNTAIN SS
MODEL SEVEN STAINLESS STEEL

Thanks. I guess I just liked the price range. Figured I could work on it a little at a time and get it how I wanted it jewel trigger maybe get the action glass bedded for probably less than a CDL costs well shoot

Sportsmans warehouse ran a ad a while back for them in stainless. I was a little mad because i had just bought a xcr tactical long range for way more money.

I've got the mountain stainless in 25-06 and that thing is light..it's about 7.5 with a scope and no ammo. It kinda feels funny because I'm used to heavier rifles.

That's who I heard had them too. A guy told me his buddy bought one at the Sportsmens in Bend, but they don't list them on their website. Nobody shows them on their websites, not even Remington.
What the heck?

So if anyone cares I found a couple 300s long range stainless in bend. Too far to drive for the wrong caliber. Apparently they have a note saying they're being discontinued. Weird.
