Remington 783 Walnut Complete Specs and Full Gun Specifications

The 783 is a push feed action with a 90 degree bolt throw and it is extremely smooth. The user adjustable, sheet steel, Cross-Fire trigger, with its Savage-like safety blade, breaks at a very crisp four pounds out of the box. A two-position safety is located at the right rear of the receiver. The steel detachable magazine holds four rounds and is held in place by a steel (not plastic) latch. Two-piece, Weaver style scope bases are factory installed atop the receiver, a nice extra. The rifle is entirely made in the USA and comes with a lifetime written warranty, like all current Remington firearms. The Remington 783 walnut in .270 Winchester caliber is extremely soft shooting. There is no magical reason why, it is just the rifle's weight. The test rifle weighs 7 pounds 10 ounces, empty, with the magazine installed. A sensible riflescope and rings should add about a pound. Add a leather cobra sling and a full magazine and the field ready weight will be around 9-1/4 pounds.
