Remington M24 VS Remington 700

The M24 Sniper Rifle is chambered in 7.62x51mm NATO (.308 Winchester) is outfitted with a 24" 416 stainless steel bull (#8 contour) barrel. The barrel is 5R rifled with a 1:11.25" right hand twist that provides excellent accuracy for almost all .308 loads. Additionally, the barrel features a post for the attachment of a front target sight found on all M24 Sniper Rifles. Despite being chambered for a short action cartridge the M24 is built on the Remington 700 long action – allowing the rifle to be rechambered for the .300 Winchester Magnum (bolt change/modification required), a request made by the US Army when the M24 was developed.

It’s the number one bolt-action of all time, proudly made in the U.S.A. For over 50 years, more Model 700s have been sold than any other bolt-action rifle before or since. The legendary strength of its 3-rings-of-steel receiver paired with a hammer-forged barrel, combine to yield the most popular bolt-action rifle in history. Top choice of elite military snipers, the Model 700 is unequalled in tactical precision.Whether defending freedom or pursuing big game, its out-of-the-box accuracy is unmatched.
