When purchasing this rifle, a buyer had the additional choice of magazine configuration. The first option was a blind magazine which has no floor plate, the second is a conventional magazine with detachable floor plate and finally, a detachable box magazine. There are standard consumer versions as well as versions designed for military and police use. Some variants come with bipods, slings, fluted barrels and other options.

Remington 700 Misfire issues After CNBC ran a story about the Remington 700 misfiring, or firing without the trigger being pulled, a stir was caused in the shooting public. The truth of the matter is that according to the facts, there are only 75 lawsuits in total against Remington for this reason, and based on production numbers, 99.9985% function perfectly. With those numbers, could this really be a design flaw?. Furthermore, despite claims that the situation is easily reproduced, and hundreds of thousands of dollars being spent on experts, nobody has EVER been able to cause a Remington 700 to fire without the trigger being pulled, the cause of these suits may be a result of owners modifying incorrectly a factory 700. Additionally, Remington no longer uses the Walker Trigger, which is the trigger that was claimed to be defective. |
