783 Ren.

[BWM]

Has any one got the 783 Rem ? I have read some good reports on it. around 400.00 for it.

Don't have one but have read and heard good things. I also watched a new gun test from Dave Petzal on "The Gun Nuts" and he was shooting very impressive groups with it at 100 yds

It seems to be a Marlin with cosmetic differences. Should be good rifle. In my mind, the app $50 price difference between it and the 700ADL makes the ADL a no brainer. A 700 should be worth $50 more any day.

I've read good things about em but it's going to be tough to sell em when you can buy an ADL for $379 at Academy Sports.

^^^^ I have seen the 700 advertised for $379 at academy. Does the 783 have a pressed barrel? Or is it replaceable?

 

[reynolds357]

783 has a barrel nut system identical to the Marlin and a copy of the Savage.

What are the differences between the 700 and 783? Just curious.

The bolt, the stock, the barrel, the magazine, the price.
