I was looking through an on line catalog, and noticed a Remington 700 Predator rifle, yea, maybe its a copy cat of the Savage rifle, it was camoed and short for fast handeling.
The Problem? I can't seem to find this rifle anywhere! Anyone else seen it???

For some reason my 'puter won't let me on Gun Broker, but I don't imagine that there will be one on there.
I imagine that a Youth Model would be perfect, and they have a camo model available now. Just wish they had some left-handed Youth Models available....my youngest son is a lefty/left eye dominent.

why not build one...lefty stock, buy a barrel, buy the right action...700 parts are everywhere, not too expensive, unless you want it to be.

been there done that.......and will do it again every time now.

Remington actions just arn't laying around, and finding a lefty is like finding a needle in a haystack. I can get a new rifle for around 350 bucks, in that HORRIBLE SPS stock. Man are those things el-cheapo! Hollowed out ABS P.O.S.
I'd just like to see a Remington Predator, if it indeed exists.
I think we all know how to build one though.

I might be wrong but I don't think the Remington 700 Predator is out yet, anywhere.
not sure. i was at the grocery store last night and on the mag. rack, there was this remington buyers guide type mag. i thumbed through it while mrs. told me i didn't need another magazine, and there was a picture of it and it's stats. it did say the price was "to be announced" so i assume it is not available yet...

But to find a lefty 700 with a heavier barrel, maybe 20" long, I'll have to get a smith to build one.
