Hey everyone. I’m not sure if it’s ok to ask in this forum or not but trying to make a decision to let my LTR go. Just more curious than anything if there is much interest in these rifles still and whether or not it’s be worth selling, or what they go for. Any opinions would be appreciated,last few years have not been kind lol.
Thanks in advance.
 
That's been my experience as well -- seller's remorse seems to be a common thing with these rifles. For what it's worth, the one LTR I have was simply dropped into a McMillan stock and started shooting 1/2 MOA groups at 300 meters with a 168 grain HPBT over a charge of Varget. Consistently.

It's not for sale :)
 
Thanks for all the replies. I’ve definitely sold some firearms that I’ve regretted and after posting yesterday I pulled it from the safe and decided it’s going to stay with me. We had a flood in our house a few years back and although everything else in my safe seemed ok, my LTR developed some surface rust spots so I don’t think I’d get enough to not regret selling. I have kept it oiled and seems to have stopped from getting worse but I’m sure it’d devalue it. So, it’ll just have to get shot some more this summer I guess.
Thanks again! KO
 
Try using G96 on it. Should help remove minor spots and will stop any further rusting. I would recommend taking it out of the stock and spraying everything down.

The LTR is a nice rifle. I prefers the 5R milspec but the LTR is nice. I would keep it.
 
Don't sell it, my grandfather had one and he sold it, I always loves that rifle, I was so upset when he sold it, now that I have my PAL and was hoping to get one I found out they have not been made for some years. I would love to say sell it to me, but I would rather say don't sell it, you will regret it and who knows when Remington is going to start making them again.
 
I had an LTR years ago and sold the barreled action so I could keep the stock for subsequent builds. Eventually acquired another LTR stock so have two that I use for builds. Bottom line is that the older LTR’s had great stocks…basically a sporter style with a bit wider forestock that slides well in bags. Mine both have aluminum bedding blocks.

Took me a while but I tracked down an LTR stock for my rifle. I like that its more compact, fits my rifle good with the 22" barrel.
