Madison, NC – Since
their debut at the 2006 SHOT Show, the Remington® Premier Over &
Under line of target and field shotguns have rapidly made their
mark in the competitive world of clay shooting and with
wingshooters alike. Classic Italian craftsmanship, superior
balance and sleek handling elevate these over & unders to a
status of their own. Remington is pleased to expand this line of
finely-crafted and well-designed break actions for 2007 with the
addition of three new 12- gauge competition versions. The
Premier STS® Competition with 32-inch barrel and Premier
STS Competition Adjustable Comb with choice of 30 or 32-inch
barrel lengths join the initial Premier STS Competition 12-gauge
offering with 28 or 30-inch barrel.
Each Premier STS
Competition offering features a low-profile, machined steel
receiver with electroless nickel plating for added protection;
polished blued, target-style barrels; premium figured walnut
stock with right-hand palm swell and target-style Schnabeled
fore-end for quick, responsive handling. Both stock and fore-end
are enhanced with detailed cut checkering and handsome high
gloss finish. The barrels are overbored (0.735 inch diameter)
with lengthened forcing cones for optimal pattern performance
and reduction of felt recoil. The wider 10mm rib and ivory front
and steel mid beads provide for quick target acquisition and the
vented barrel filets aid in dissipation of the heat associated
with high-volume shooting. Five custom ProBore™ Choke tubes
(Skeet, Improved Cylinder, Light Modified, Modified and Full)
with convenient knurled extensions are included, allowing for
quick adjustment for varying course conditions or target
presentation. The barrel selector is conveniently located on the
tang safety. Other features that set this 12-gauge apart from
the competition include stylish engraving on the receiver;
script “R” logo on the bottom of the receiver; and distinctive
gold trigger. These well-designed Premier Over & Under shotguns
come with a FAA-approved, lockable hard case.
To further enhance your gun
fit and performance, select the Premier STS Competition
Adjustable Comb stock version with 30 or 32-inch barrel
length. This feature allows the stock to be customized to the
shooter with adjustment for both height and cast.
Competitively-styled and classically-designed, the Premier
Competition STS Over & Unders deliver clay-crushing
performance in an extremely attractive package. Available at
suggested retail prices of $2540 and $2890 (with Adjustable
Comb).
