Does anyone have experience with the Remington 700 SF limited edition 257 Roberts? I am seriously considering getting one and wondered if they are bedded nicely and shoot out of the box as claimed.
Thanks and Merry Christmas
I believe the Rem 700 SF is a short action. Remington has chambered the 257Bob in both long and short actions. The 700 Classic was a long action and the 700 mountian rifle was a short action. The 257 BOB works in both. Remington did produce some limited editions 257 bobs in stainless that were short actions. A 2.8 or 3 inch magazine box works just fine for a 257Bob.
