    Remington 783 .223 16.5 inch barrel?

    Hello,

    Just hoping I can find one of these for sale in canada. I'm looking for the short 16.5 inch, or 16.25 inch... Not sure of exact length ... Remington 783 heavy barrel in .223. The one with the threaded barrel and oversized bolt handle.

    I'm not finding any in stock even when I google. I'm wondering if they are still available and if so where?

    Thanks
    Chris

    Yeah. I need something in .223 and was going to go with a semi but I already have a few and not many bolt guns. I decided this gun is just about perfect for my needs and has a little bit of a cool factor too. There aren't many other compact. .223 bolt guns out there with these traits and this reputation. The low price is extra bonus. They should have used an aics compatible bottom metal for the real win but there are aftermarket options.

    Have one, it is a nice piece, the trigger is decent, seems to be MOA accurate

    I've heard good things about the 783.
    On the other hand, Remington doesn't make these for us southpaws.

    I'd purchase one of these in a heartbeat if it was left hand bolt.
    The 700 SPS and rare variants are lefty (not my politics though)...

    Anyone have a source for Remington 700 action only in left hand bolt short action (223 bolt) out there...at a reasonable price?

    Mine is in 6.5 Creedmoor, very nice gun indeed. I am planning to buy a chassis with AICS compatible mags and folding stock. Hopefully there will be some good deals around black Friday
