Madison, NC – At
4000fps, the exciting new .17 Remington Fireball breaks the
barrier for small caliber performance. Only Remington can match
this extremely fast, highly accurate and flat-shooting caliber
with the legendary “out-of-the-box” performance of the Model
700™ and Model Seven™. For 2007, Remington is pleased to
announce five bolt-action offerings chambered for the latest
member of the .17 caliber family - the highly collectible
Model 700 CDL™ SF LTD Edition (Classic Deluxe Stainless Fluted);
two specially-designed varmint rifles, the Model 700 VSF™
(Varmint Synthetic Fluted) and the new Model 700 SPS™
Varmint (Special Purpose Synthetic); the durable workhorse
Model 700 SPS; and the compact Model Seven CDL.
All five rifles are based on the Model 700 platform, one of the
strongest and most accurate actions available, and feature the
new Remington X-MARK PRO™ trigger, further enhancing their
tack-driving capabilities.
Model 700 CDL SF LTD Edition – Engraving on the hinged
floorplate denoting the introduction of the .17 Remington
Fireball cartridge, “Model 700 Limited” rollmark on the receiver
and limited production quantities set this commemorative rifle
apart. The CDL features a satin finished, straight comb American
walnut stock with right-handed cheekpiece, generous cut
checkering, black fore-end tip and grip cap. The durable 416
stainless fluted barreled action, clean 24-inch hammer-forged
barrel and jeweled bolt – all feature a satin stainless finish.
Other features include receiver drilled and tapped for scope
mounts; four round magazine capacity; R3® Recoil Pad; and sling
swivel studs. This second offering in the collectible Model 700

the cartridge make the Model 700 one of the strongest and most
accurate actions available. Suggested retail price: $647
