Here are two new models from Remington which I thought could be of interest to some CGNers.

Remington introduces a Model 7 (hang on to your hat for the model name: "Synthetic Threaded Mossy Oak Bottomland Camo") with a 16.5 inch barrel and three caliber options - 300 AAC Blackout, 308 and 6.5 Creedmoor (for that last caliber, not sure about barrel length. In Remington's litterature, there is confusing info - one place mentions 16.5 inch, and 20 inch in another). Lightweight division, coming in at 6 pounds.

Also new, a 700 chambered in (imho) the often underappreciated 300 Savage. 20 inch barrel, stainless (satin finish), about 7.5 pounds. Looking at the mag floorplate shows why Remington decided to bring this one out this year.

Ok before you guys ask, I'll look for the info on the black rifle at the bottom of the first picture!:)

Thanks for the pics! I've always thought the 300Sav would make a great addition to my battery. And the 100 Anniversary seems like the perfect excuse!
 
WOW that 700 CP pictured above is awesome.

Does anyone know the overall length with the butt stock at its shortest adjustment.

I would buy it in a heart beat in 308 if it was non-restricted.

I'd load it with Barnes 130gr TTSX would be the ultimate thick bush blacktail deer bolt gun.
 
Figured it out the 12.5" barreled 700 CP in 308 without butt stock is 21.75" OAL means with an adjustable butt stock it would have to be at least 10" longer making it a non restricted long gun.

The 223 and 300 Blackout have 10.5" barrels OAL is 20.81" without butt stock.

Wouldn't the overall length, with the stock collapsed, have to be 26" to make it Non-Restricted? A standard buffer tube would accomplish that. :)

Did you find out an MSRP while you were sleuthing? Or weight? I was going to comment about how that model 7 looks sweet but a 12.5" barrel is intriguing.
 
I’m reading 21.75” on the remington site without the pistol brace. If that’s right by adding a ar style stock of any kind will make it legal. A a2 style stock would be great
 
The Rem 700 CP will be coming in as non restricted rifle with a Magpul stock. Unfortunately offered only in 223 and 308 initially. Expected delivery in the summer.

I'm interested in the 308 first would the Magpul stock be a special shortened forend model or is the standard stock short enough.

I'm not sure that I want a Magpul stock for this little cannon I really like the look of it with the brace stock setup.

I have two of the OD green Magpul Hunter 700 stocks on my sa Rem 700 LTR in 6.8SPC and la Rem 700 XCR 11 in 25-06 and really like them.
