FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

 

New Ruggedly-Handsome Model 700™ LSS Magnum Chambered in the Ultra-Velocity .257 Weatherby Magnum

 
 

Madison, N.C. – Pairing the classy Remington® Model 700 LSS (Laminate Stock Stainless) Magnum with a truly classic, high velocity cartridge, the .257 Weatherby Magnum, is a match made in heaven. The Model 700 bolt-action has long been the preferred centerfire rifle of choice by small game, predator and trophy hunters alike and chambering this 40-year veteran with a high performance .25 caliber gives hunters a rugged, hard-hitting rifle ready to tackle most North American game. (Note: The Model 700 LSS Magnum is an exclusive firearm offering available only from select wholesalers through independent Remington Premier dealers).

At the core of this rifle is the rigid Model 700 receiver, machined from a solid steel bar. This, combined with the famous “three-rings-of-steel” design which completely surrounds the cartridge head, makes the Model 700 one of the strongest and most accurate rifles available. With this solid construction and advanced design, the Model 700 has earned a reputation for its out-of-the-box accuracy.

The action is fitted in a gorgeous, semi-gloss black laminate stock that is impervious to weather and wears our patented SuperCell™ Recoil Pad. Millions of advanced polymer SuperCells absorb more of the recoil force over a longer period of time and “felt recoil” is effectively lessened. Our new X-Mark Pro™ trigger is standard and delivers crisp, perfect trigger pulls with virtually zero creep and is adjustable for pull weight by an authorized gunsmith. A weather-resistant, satin-finished 416 stainless steel action with jeweled bolt is paired with a 26-inch clean stainless steel barrel to complete this handsome rifle. The hinged floorplate magazine has a four round capacity; receiver is drilled and tapped; and sling swivel studs complete this well-designed package.

Partner this high performance, bolt-action centerfire rifle with our newly introduced .257 Weatherby Magnum 115 gr Core-Lokt™ offering and you will be ready to bring home that next trophy animal.
