Guns Listing ID: 542699
The Remington Model 783 is a bolt-action hunting rifle that represents Remington‚s entry into the highly competitive \"value-priced\" or \"budget\" rifle market. Its history is rooted in a response to market demand and leveraging acquired designs.
Here‚s a breakdown of its history:
1. Context and Purpose (Early 2010s):
By the late 2000s and early 2010s, other manufacturers like Savage (with its Axis series) and Ruger (with its American Rifle) had successfully introduced accurate and affordable bolt-action rifles that were gaining significant market share. Remington, long known for its flagship Model 700, recognized the need for a rifle to compete in this growing segment. The goal was to offer a reliable, accurate hunting rifle at a price point accessible to a broader range of consumers, especially new hunters or those on a tighter budget.
2. Introduction (2013):
The Remington Model 783 was officially launched in 2013. The \"783\" in its name is a nod to its heritage and introduction year:
\"7\" from the venerable Model 700.
\"8\" as a spiritual successor to the well-regarded, but discontinued, budget-friendly Model 788.
\"3\" signifying the year of its introduction, 2013.
3. Design Heritage (Marlin X7):
A key part of the 783‚s design history is its direct link to the Marlin X7 rifle. Remington Arms (under the umbrella of the Freedom Group at the time) acquired Marlin in 2007. The mechanical design of the Model 783 is largely based on the Marlin X7, which itself had incorporated elements (like the barrel nut and floating bolt head) popularized by Savage. This allowed Remington to quickly bring a proven, cost-effective design to market under its own brand.
4. Key Design Features and Philosophy:
The 783 was engineered with accuracy and affordability in mind:
\"CrossFire\" Adjustable Trigger: Similar to Savage‚s AccuTrigger and Marlin‚s Pro-Fire, the 783 features a user-adjustable trigger with a blade safety in the trigger itself. This allows users to fine-tune the trigger pull from 2.5 to 5 pounds, enhancing accuracy.
Pillar-Bedded Synthetic Stock: The stock is made from a rigid, high-nylon-content synthetic material and features aluminum pillars for the action screws. This \"pillar bedding\" helps ensure a consistent and stable interface between the barreled action and the stock, contributing to accuracy.
Free-Floated, Button-Rifled Barrel: The carbon steel barrel is button-rifled and free-floated, meaning it doesn‚t touch the fore-end of the stock. This helps maintain consistent barrel harmonics and improves accuracy. Barrel lengths are typically 22 inches for standard calibers and 24 inches for magnum calibers, often with a magnum contour for stiffness.
Barrel Nut System: Like the Marlin X7 and Savage rifles, the 783 uses a barrel nut to precisely set headspace during manufacturing. This is a cost-effective method that contributes to accuracy.
Detachable Box Magazine: The rifle comes with a steel-framed, detachable box magazine that holds 3-5 rounds depending on the caliber.
Rigid Receiver: The cylindrical receiver has a minimally sized ejection port, which adds to its rigidity and contributes to accuracy.
SuperCell Recoil Pad: To manage recoil, especially in lighter rifles and magnum calibers, the 783 is equipped with Remington‚s SuperCell recoil pad.
