Remington 700 .300 Wby Mag 24" Barrel Black

The Remington 700 in .300 Weatherby Magnum with a 24-inch barrel represents a proven platform that has dominated deer, elk, and long-range hunting for generations. This particular configuration pairs the legendary Model 700 action—known for its smooth operation and sub-MOA accuracy potential—with one of the most respected magnum cartridges in the American hunting arsenal. The .300 Wby Mag delivers the kind of velocity and energy that serious hunters rely on for extended-range work without the overkill of ultra-magnums. If you're building a rifle around a cartridge that balances power, range capability, and reasonable recoil, the 700 in .300 Weatherby is a time-tested choice.

The 24-inch barrel hits a practical sweet spot for magnum hunting rifles: long enough to wring good velocity from the .300 Wby Mag case without becoming unwieldy in brush or from a vehicle, yet short enough to stay reasonably handy in the field. The black finish on the metalwork provides clean, no-nonsense aesthetics and durability. The American walnut stock with its Monte Carlo comb, raised cheekpiece, and cut checkering delivers both functionality and traditional rifle character—a reminder that the 700 platform doesn't require modern furniture to be effective.

This rifle comes outfitted with the classic Remington 700 feature set: a hinged magazine floorplate for quick unloading, sling swivel studs for traditional carrying systems, a hooded ramp front sight, and an adjustable rear sight. These aren't tactical add-ons; they're time-honored hunter-class amenities that keep you focused on the hunt rather than fighting your rifle's controls. Whether you're glassing from a ridge or working through timber, the 700's reputation for reliability and accuracy remains well-earned.

Remington 700s have spawned countless aftermarket stocks, triggers, and precision builds—if you ever want to evolve the platform later, the ecosystem exists. But out of the box, this is a rifle built to hunt, with no apologies and no unnecessary complications.
