"Remington 700: $700 for 700 yds" by Nutnfancy

[@AC-pm7sn]

Nutnfancy 2012: Love these guns, they rock. Nutnfancy 2015: Remington 700 has unacceptable accuracy.

[@dominicsaad8594]

Lol Ikr

[@MrPlissken87]

Cole Byre I guess Remington forgot to mail him his check.

[@saxonweed2846]

Yeah remingtons are at their best in 7mm Remington or 308 and even 270, 300 win mag is for the model 70

[@Deerslayer1912]

He might have been happy with that at the time, but after he reviewed more bolt actions he realized the 700 isn't all that special compared to others like the weatherby and fn tsr.

[@Deerslayer1912]

You can get rifles for approximately the same price that are guaranteed to be more accurate. Weatherby and tikka guarantee there rifles to 1moa and savage guarantees there rifles to 1.5 moa. I believe howas have an accuracy guarantee too. All those listed above cost just as much if not less than any 700.

[@JimboLogic]

Have a Remington 700 in 30-06 for hunting, love it. All the stock options you can put on it I would dare to say it is the AR of bolt guns, very customizable to your needs.

[@laurynas.k]

Im in love with Remington 700, lots of mods you can put on this rifle, real accurate if you know what ammo and scope to use, last summer i pushed ~800meters from this little rifle, so only good memories after shooting... :)

[@Rascal77s]

I bought a 700 P back in the 90s and it is my favorite rifle to this day. It is made like a Swiss watch, it just radiates precision and fine engineering. That rifle still shoots under .5 MOA all day long with with just about anything I put in it (although I don't use crap ammo). All of the 700 models are fine rifles, and if you are in the market for a bolt gun, I highly recommend the 700 series. Especially the 700 P.

[@marionhart196]

I purchased the Rem 700 ADL Varmint Bull barrel in the 308 Cal. I added a Magpul Hunter Stock /w Magpul magazine assembly. I purchased a Vortex viper 6.5x20x44 scope w/30mm tube . I put a cheap bipod off ebay for $20.00. I also reload my own ammo. I am shooting 150 gn bullet /w 44.0 gn Varget powder. It shoots great at long ranges. I have a Rem 700 AAC 308 rifle. Looking forward to rigging this gun out like the ADL. I want to do a comparsion between the two guns. By the way great video.

[@thebigSimon]

I got a rem 700 after seeing this video and I love it. Thanks for all the reviews. You make buying guns easier with less risk of not knowing what your getting. Thanks again and keep up the good work.

[@jayrharris21]

I'm glad I watched this. As a current poor college student, I have been considering selling my 700 to cover moving expenses. Really hard considering I took my first bear and deer with it. It's unfortunate that you regret selling yours, but hopefully others like me can learn from your experiences. Thanks for sharing.

[@gunchief0811]

dude sell everything but your dog and your fire arms.. and your Holy Bible. those three things will keep u good to go in the Event of a catastrophe.. your education will be a valuable tool as well. the dedication and the discipline to finish something that you started thats what college is all about. stay in the fight brother..

[@felipecernas8424]

Bryan Calhoun sell your bible or use it as target practice. Other than that it's useless.. or hey, maybe when you run out of toilet paper, the bible can come of good use for quite some time. :D

[@ar15boss]

That was seriously uncool^^^

[@Commanderhurtz1]

***** Dude, that is serious disrespect on many levels.

[@TrankWithAnR]

Commanderhurtz1 It's a bunch of paper with ink on them. Who cares? Not hurting anyone the way I see it.

[@JCW7766]

Best part of the video for me, the target comparison between different rounds. It does make a difference.

[@Falconguygaming]

I like my Winchester mod 70 featherweight in 30-06. 70th anniversary version with that beautiful walnut stock

[@SikMisfits]

Okay? I like Oreos.

[@saxonweed2846]

I got one too, gotta love Winchester.

[@LONGTRANG42]

I've used a 700 for hunting and recreation since I was in elementary school and love it. In order to prevent feeding issues I load the first round all the way to the back and each round after slightly forward of the last, that seems to aid with the feeding issues.

[@TheAlexagius]

Loving the tactical gas release

[@YorumiTech]

1:57 xD thats loud!

[@GabeMacDonnell]

1 thing i love about the 700- it's been so successful for so long, (in so many POU's,) that it is easy and inexpensive to maintain & repair. Every smith knows this gun.

[@martinennor5551]

hey nutn.....would like to see your thoughts on the new magpul hunter 700 stock paired with the magpul magazine bottom metal....would love to see one on the reviewing table!

[@cowboyweightlifter]

Nutnfancy, long time sub here. Just want to compliment you on your precision in handling firearms. Great accuracy and knowledge. It is nice to see you work. Thank you.

[@oldannyboy37]

The Savage model 10 really seems like a good alternative to the 700 these days. I do love my old 78 (old budget 700), it shoots true every shot =).

[@Lottahops]

My first Nutnfancy video, damn great review, commentary examples... Everything! Thanks for spending the time in doing what you enjoy and showing us all what you have experienced.

[@djjerz]

Nutnfancy farts at 1:54 lmao!

[@jasonandronda]

Another one at 21:05

[@JR-iy1we]

I just bought my Remington 700 sps tactical for $650. It has a 1:10 twist 20" barrel with a vortex viper HS-T 4-16x44 and its crazy accurate! I love this rifle!!!

[@Toobs916]

1:57, Fart? Nice.

[@msh441]

Christmas just came early for me this year! My dad just finished his 'ultimate' .308 precision rifle build (after three years!!!), and I just got his hand-me-down rifle that's been filling that role up until now: Remington 700 XCR Tactical Long Range, with a Burris XTR 6-24. He'd put the oversized badger lever on, and a piece of rail up front. He kept the bipod, but I had a small Harris and a KAC rail adaptor for it that went right on. Now all I need is some desert!!! Technically this is 'on loan indefinitely. I can sell or trade... but who would want to!?! I've been lusting after a 700P for years. This will fill that distance precision role just fine, I think...

[@Gangster88232]

Nuh, why remington, when you can have Tikka T3, or Sako 85.

[@thelegendbullet937]

Is it just me or does the sliding action of the bolt on that seem a tight/gritty?

[@71wicker]

Great job nutn! I myself have a 700 BDL,detach mag.30.06 its about 13 years old! It's my favorite out of my collection for hunting. I also take it everywhere with me.Took many whitetail,Elk,pigs, and a few bear. The longest shot ever taken with it 1000 yards on a bet,12 pound pumpkin as a target and was granted 3 shots! Took it on the first and won a moose tag. Thanks bud keep up the good work

[@bigwesandfriends2602]

2:52 "in a nutn shell"😂

[@dvrockabilly6197]

Tainted love is now playing in the background. It really improves the vid.

[@Tankerchief117]

Was that incoming at 1:57

[@cipher315198]

have been waiting for a 700 review for about 3 years now Thanks so much!

[@11JLalala]

1:56 *farts* "nice one" LOLOLOLOL! XD

[@Shabahz83]

WOW! Thanks for making these reviews. I'm sure you get a lot of kudos from a lot of people but my profession is to make sure the internet works for everyone in north america which means the world so I spend a lot of time on a computer. I watch a lot of youtube videos while working on code and I have to say you do it right man. THANKS!

[@johntoth6375]

the music is extremely obnoxious.

[@runngunr21]

LOVE THE BOLT GUNS! MORE NUTN! NEED TO SEE SOME MORE! LOVE IT! We all would love to see more bolt guns and continue to see the budget minded models. I think that everyone would love to see some more vids like that. Love that you reviewed these specific models. Can't wait to see some more come along and get reviewed. Thanks for the vid.

[@ibetrollintheybehatin6857]

This isn't a review, it's a fucking documentary.

[@Skullz_Ralyks]

I just got a Remington 700 SPS Tactical in .308 last Christmas for deer/Hog hunting... It is amazing I am in Georgia, My average shot will be from 85 to 140 yards because of trees. So I put a Leupold VX1 and the setup is amazing, I love it!!!

[@440CRF250x]

vx1 is probably the best scope for the money. I bought the vx2 and should have just got the vx1. can't tell the difference in the field

[@jojo123469]

The Remington 700 is a nice accurate rifle, but my Savage .308 model 10 Accutrigger accustock, shoots better then any Remington 700 for the same price range. Here in Canada the Savage model 10 costs a little over $800.00 Canadian funds. With reloaded ammo "168 grain hornady BTHP and 42 grains IMR 4895 powder, Vortex 4-12X42 Diamondback scope", I"m shooting 1/4 inch MOA most of the time.......Canada

[@aaronebartee]

Great videos, please keep it up! I own the R 700 5r milspec, and didm' like the bolt knob either...... until i bought the KRG BOLT LIFT. Changes the entire feel of the action, absolutely no wobble or play when attached, saves time and money, no gunsmith needed, best $28 I've spent in a while. I strongly recommend and i think it looks good on the rifle as well.

[@lukemahler5656]

the m24 sniper rifle is just a glorified 700

[@jamieissorry99]

I just order a Remington 700 Custom Deluxe BDL in 7mm Rem Mag yesterday! Can't wait to get it.

[@Mrpike69]

I hate it when people say "budget" Not everyone has the same budget..

[@McMuffinwin]

Compared to most rifles the 700's are fairly inexpensive. Very accurate long-range shooting can be a very expensive field of shooting to get into. Most decent bolt guns run between $3,000-$5,000 and up.

[@MCHelper24]

When most people say "budget gun" they mean it as a cheap gun without making it sound like its poor quality, and no it's not in everybody's budget, but broad strokes get the fence painted quicker.

[@yeentem1570]

James Getsome Most decent bolt guns can be a hell of a lot cheaper than that. This 700 could probably reach out to 1,100 easy, with a decent optic and the right ammo. Generally the rule is $1,000 for 1,000. You don't need much more than that to get good range.

[@bgindt]

Dead Dog Nope try 300yr

[@bgindt]

unknown Awesome rifle it will touch someone.

[@kwillheat]

I have the sps in the 26" barrel and I love it. Less than 150 rounds through it, and shooting great. Love the review Nuntn

[@hunterhull2174]

"nice one" at 1:56 too funny

[@krobak47]

Thanks Nutn, I have had my SPS Varmint for over a year now. Not the lightest rifle out there but the accuracy has been devastating to predators. I have had the same issues with the feeding. Still a great rifle. Got mine for around $500 after the rebate.

[@stefanpurtic3958]

1:55 Sniper Fart !

[@lojack816]

+Stefan Purtić DEPLOY SMOKE!

[@mattn5160]

Awesome timing! I was going to pick up the SPS tactical in .223 this evening so finding this vid in my inbox this morning was a quite surprise. I would definitely like to see additional reviews on bolt rifles, including other Remingtons, Savage, Tikka, etc.

[@mrcina8621]

1:56 fart

[@amicklich6729]

Nice push.

[@BarbershopHero]

This and MAC are my new favorite channels on youtube.

[@jesus636]

Thanks TNP for a great honest review. Dicks had the Remington 700 ADL Varmint .308 26" HB (same as SPS but no floor plate?) in Mossy Oak with a 4-12x40 scope mounted for $350. YES, $350. This review made this chioce plain and simple. On a side note, I love feeling like I'm getting the commentary from none other than Jeff Spicoli himself! Keep up the good work, dude!

[@franklin29412]

I own 2 700's the vtr .308 and a 30_06. Both have leupolds on them. Best combo I've ever put in my hands. There is a reason the military used them.

[@djcamicamshaft]

Had a SPS in 308 for about a year now , free floated the barrel and bedded the stock with a bed rock kit from Midway USA, topped with a vortex scope, shooting under and inch at 100 yards, haven't pushed it any further yet cause I dont have a longer range but loving it so far

[@shalynr]

Awesome video! I just picked one up as my first center fire rifle. Rem 700 BDL in 7mm Rem Mag. Loving it!

[@etucker5007]

Hi, In the US you do not need a permit to buy a gun. They do an instant background check at the store when you buy a gun. Some states/ cities require a permit to buy a handgun, but most places don't. Out of my experience gloves help keep your hands warm and in the case of shooting they can help you keep from getting blisters, scratching fingers or burning your hand if you heat the barrel up.

[@JosephDragunov]

Your content's quality has leaped this year. No Doubt.

[@CobraRunescape]

I love my Remington 700 ADL in 30-06 :) my first firearm.

[@punisher0276]

I have several M700s and never a problem. My favorites are the 300 win mag sniper and the 7mm ultra mag which actually kicks more than a 300 win mag. The 7mm ultra mag is a 1000 yard rifle easy. Especially using scirroco rounds from remington

[@southerndixierebel]

Great Review Nutn! I always enjoy the thorough work you do, keep it up!

[@cameronbajt4]

Just built my first rifle! 700 SPS-V in .223. Its excellent!

[@jaredlund64]

My dad won a remington 700 in a raffle back in 1970 at a grocery store and now...it's mine. I love that gun.

[@Soldier4USA2005]

I had a 700 CDL in .30-06 and it was great. Irons came zeroed. I had to sell it, but I am getting an SPS .308cal on Sunday. Remi rifles are smooth, low cost, easy to clean and light weight.

[@schumak13]

my remington 700 varmint shoots .5 in groups at 100yds consistently with my hand loads. I love it and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for long range shooting.

[@stevehammond9156]

I took an 8 point at 872 yards last December with my Rem 700 BDL .30-06 and my handloads. It is a superbly accurate rifle for the money, I did accurize it somewhat with a B&C match stock which I had the bed glassed and the barrel floated, but it still has the stock barrel and the stock trigger, which has been adjusted down to a perfect 2 pounds. You can spend a lot more for a rifle but you are going to be hard pressed to get better accuracy worth the extra bucks. 1 hole, 3 round groups are easy.

[@creativemaddman]

Thanks for this review! I've been waiting for it! Keep it up Nutn! Always appreciate your time and effort!

[@USpatriot741776]

NO I just finished the SPR vid. Now I have to stay up and watch this too! Nutn, you're killing me.

[@Soldier4USA2005]

I'm Army 11B and I'm trying to make an M24. I found out that Remington sells them to civies, but they only make them in batches due to the hand crafting required. If you want an M40 and money isn't an issue, start with the action and build up. For me money is an issue, so I'm going with the 700 SPS Tactical in .308cal. It only has a 20" barrel, but it's the closest on a budget.

[@HiddenbyLeaves]

Really love the sceneries as well (just beautiful. I could watch it all day) - Thanks alot for sharing ! We appreciate the information & feedback. Take care !

[@Outdoorsforum]

FINALLY!! I love bolt gun reviews and the shooting! Nutn, outstanding. Cant wait for the Weatherby Vanguard Review!!

[@Edwardlewis18]

Sweet review Nutnfancy! I love how much effort you put into each review. Love the bolt guns! Keep up the good work!

[@Nefarious79]

That review has been in the works for a long time

[@Thrandi]

I have a Left Handed 700 SPS in .308 with a Redfield 4-12 x40. LOVE IT. Special ordered it from my local box store about 3 years ago, it was ~$620. At the time (Haven't checked lately) it was the only option for a Left Hand 700 in .308. Took it hunting the next year, man it was heavy to shelp around. 26inches is long for hunting! I recently shot one like from your childhood, 700 wood stock hunting rifle, 30-06. That rifle is SO much lighter. Very nice gun, but like you said different POU

[@aphsknight74]

I have 2 700's 1 in .30-06 and one in .300 WinMag and they are superb. I love em.

[@mitchlouis32]

Picked up the SPS for $350 after rebate on black friday. But being a Christmas present, I have to wait patiently to shoot it. This video makes that a lot tougher, but it gives a lot to look forward to. Can't wait.

[@iansvlogs]

Man, mine was a steal......I bought my older remington 700 30-06 bolt for $200. nothing fancy on the scope. I put 5, 180gr core-lokt psp rounds in a quarter at 200yds all day(in the field, not the range), if it kills elk in one shot, its my kind of gun. ive shot 220's through it. I dont shoot my elk past 300yds. i love this gun, its a proven weapon. great video.

[@ianarno]

I come for the guns and backpacking (and knives, flashlights, philosophies, etc.) and stay for the honesty.

[@TriviumFan15]

I have been able to find remington 700's go for around $500 in my area. I have yet to own one for myself but I have fired it before and it is by far a favorite of mine when it comes to bolt action rifles. The weight and handling of the weapon makes it a very comfortable rifle to shoot.

[@MsGIJew]

You are like the best reviewer I've ever had the pleasure to watch!!!

[@IntTransModel11]

Yes!! I got my high-quality TNP fix...Awesome breakdown Nutnfancy on these two models of the Remington 700. We'll enjoy all these vids for years to come. Props, Yo!! _M11

[@FluxMotivation]

Hey Nutnfancy I bought a 700 sps yesterday because of this video

[@m081779]

Nutn, you need to do more tabletops on high value optics. Awesome review on an awesome rifle. Keep doing what you do, you're the best out there.

[@mbonneau79]

Good review. These guns are a great introduction to precision shooting. The 700 SPS Tactical sits between them and throws a 1 in 9 twist .223 chambering into the mix (SPS Varmint is 1 in 12, no .223 in the AAC-SD model). With the decent glass and mounting solutions available for reasonable cost these days you can get into a good beginner rig that can really reach out and touch something.

[@ckobash]

Thanks nutn been researching rem 700 and savage for my first bolt action rifle , your reviews are very helpful!

[@Ryansrangereport]

I can't say I agree you get the same level of accuracy. I've had 3 custom rifles, and 2 factory rifles. I got around 3/4-1.5 MOA out of the VTR and the ACC-SD. All 3 of my custom rifles have been consistent sub 1/2 MOA down to .25 MOA. You can get 2650 out of matchgrade 175-178g ammo and it will easily hang at 1000 yards all day long w/ a 20 inch barrel. Really after that you want to get a more capable caliber. Two of my customs were 6.5 Creedmoor

[@Toophless1]

I one of these in .223 with a Leopold zoom scope. At 100 yards it is no fun as the rounds keep going in the same hole. I need to go out to the desert to find a long range area to do some serious shooting. Good job NF....great gun as I love mine

[@bsg53md]

Love it! Have been waiting for this review for a bit but WELL worth it. Keep em comin nutn!

[@SpartacusColo]

Because his purpose is to provide as much information as possible to those who are seriously interested in this type of product. There are many others out there whose purpose is to make a 3 minute video shooting stuff to a thumping, techno soundtrack. Look them up.

[@tnobs48]

im lovin this gun and ive been waitin for a r700 review!!!! perfect way to sit through this hurricane!

[@BKH46]

The Remington 700 ADL is a good gun. I am a big Remington fan, I own 12 remington 700 BDLs, seven of which are from the custom shop that cost about 900 bucks a piece. But if your looking for a first rifle, go with a savage axis (450$). I just bought one here not to long ago and from experience, it will hang with my BDLs with the right scope, i am very impressed with it. Go with a savage axis, its a very reliable gun, and you can't beat it for the price.

[@MYKHRONICLES]

My understanding is that ADL is the simplest (lowest) grade Remington 700. All of the metal in an ADL is the same Remington 700 action/trigger barrel/quality that we know and love. The ADL will have the fewest frills-I.E. no hinged floor plate (you get a blind magazine instead) no pillar bedding, and hunter profile barrels (vs a bull barrel) Some of the SPS (Special Purpose Synthetic-I think) will begin to have more extras that are missing in an ADL. CDL comes with the most high quality extras.

[@remowil55]

The Remington 700 has been made since 1964, it is the main sniper rifle the Army and Marines use only they call it the M24. I have a 700 Police model with the 26" Heavy Bull Bbl.It weights 10 pounds to the ounce. The last time i shot it, i put 5 rounds in two holes that was 3/4" apart, At 100 yards, i paid 650 dollars for it.

[@mccurran76]

Great vid. I've owned 700's for the better part of twenty years and they are fantastic shooters. Keep up the great work!

[@SWVA2TX]

I have a 700 Classic in .257 Roberts that my Dad bought in the early 80s. What a great rifle.

[@MrShawnwil]

Amen! I dropped my SPS in a Manners and was amazed how the groups tightened up at range. Gotta have a stiff stock.

[@552Tactical]

The Ruger American is a pretty solid platform, and most people probably haven't brought it up because it is so new. I work a lot of gun and shooting trade shows, so I have had some hands-on time with it, but many aren't even aware of it's existence yet. Give it time :)

[@reeseman67]

The STANDARD, non-AAC SPS Tactical has the same dual point pillar bedding and stock as the AAC, just no threading. Thought that was the standard SPS tactical you were comparing vs. the AAC. They ARE free floated but when you lay the rifle on bags, or bi-pod it is no longer free floated!! I have a friend with a SPS Tactical and it's barrel starts touching the stock once it has much weight on one point, but they are a GREAT RIFLE! SPS AAC here I come and yes, I'll have the stock bedded/swapped!

[@likasombodeeee]

Longer barrels will give a slight velocity boost to a point, then the round will start to slow down. Longer barrels do provide greater accuracy, it helps stabilize the bullet more before exiting the barrel and helps stabilize it more as it fly's downrange. Think about it, if a artillery piece had a barrel the length of a pistol, how accurate would it be?

[@fusionstar916]

If your getting the Remington 700 for target shooting or tactical operations. The first thing I would get is a new stock and bottom metal. After a good scope of course.

[@booogalooo2]

Nice review! Yesterday I bought a new Remington 700 BDL synthetic stock .30-06 on clearance at Cabelas for $499. Score!!

[@Airforcefd]

Just ordered the 700 SPS Tact in .308 w/ 16.5" threaded barrel.

[@coolgeekish]

@nutnfancy If you remove the two tabs on the bottom of the magazine follower in the Rem 700 BDL, you should be able to fit another round. I recommend stone-polishing and greasing the bolt guide rails to smooth up the action, which should make working the bolt nearly effortless and reduce the mechanical binding you're experiencing.

[@RORsheck]

Good points made about the gun. I completely agree. Would love to have a 700 hundred yard target to practice on. TMP all the way. Protect the home front. Support our troops.

[@nutnfancy]

You're done here, Syrann....this is not a contest over who's country is best. -- Veri

[@mratelle]

Love the high value bolt gun push. Another high value option is the HOWA. Things I like about the action are: integrated recoil lug, flat bottom, Beefy M-16 style extractor. They tend to be very true actions as well... Got a 20 inch barreled action from gunnies for around $450... then there are some good stock options from Bell & Carlson with aluminum bedding block for around 250.... check out Legacy Sports for the barreled action and Stocky Stocks.

[@DevilSquid1982]

I must have gotten really lucky. I bought a Remington 700 spss tactical in .308 and I shot 1000yds with no problem. Only addons I have done has been bipod, EGW 20 moa base and cheap NcStar scope..I was waiting on a Burris to come in. I love it so far.
