I am thinking about getting a Remington LSS in 30-06. Has anyone got any opinion on them or if you own one, are you happy with it Thanks

The US are paying around US$670 or under a AUS$1000,how much are they here?







One of the most attractive, and simultaneously, the most practical over-the-counter centerfire rifles Remington has ever built--the new bolt action Model 700� LSS (Laminated Stock Stainless) Mountain Rifle has quickly become a favorite for hunters seeking a versatile, lightweight rifle.



From the day it first appeared in 1986, the Model 700 Mountain Rifle caught the eye and the fancy of discriminating shooters. New arrivals on dealers' racks rarely stayed there for more than a day. In fact, many were sold before they arrived. The Model 700 Mountain Rifle's clean, classic stock design, with straight-line comb angled slightly downward towards the muzzle and sculptured cheek piece on the left side was, and is, the style most favored by custom stockmakers. And its gracefully-tapered, 22-inch barrel, without sights, produced full-bore ballistics at the weight of a carbine. This is a rifle capable of handling mountain-level ranges without draining the hunter's energy to get there.



The barreled action is produced from 416A stainless steel set in a handsome, elements-resistant, satin-finished, brown two-tone laminated stock. Other features include crisp cut checkering, black fore-end tip and grip cap, hinged floor plate and satin-finished metal surface. It is being offered in chamberings for the 260 Remington, 7mm-08 Remington, 270 Win., and 30-06.

Graham,
I have one and would highly recommend them. Shoots around .7",30/06. Try one,I think you'll like it.

I would prefer a cz 550 or a Model 70 winnie but thats my bias towards CRF.

If I had to have a push feed I would choose a Sako 30/06 they have a laminate stainless hunting rifle in 30/06 as well.

Thanks again and good hunting.
