When $300 Shoots Like $3000: Remington 783

Comments

Greg Malcom

What a great late night surprise! Thanks Nutn!

Todd Strelka

I think I'll stay up for another hour and watch this.

Cool stuff. I still don't have a bolt gun, but it's great to see how well this one performed. Thanks Nutn.

Get up at 3:0something to pee, wander to my desk to check on a hard drive cloning operation..... Happy times GRV. Thanks Nutn, cool surprise, I'll be sleeping in. I have a pre Accutrigger Savage Axis I bought from Wallyworld on closeout when the Accutrigger came in. Under $200 out the door. I free floated the barrel in the tupperware flexi-stock and did a redneck triggerjob on it, stoned the sear and striker, lighter trigger spring out of a ball point pen, and replaced the screw it sits on with a longer one for a trigger overtravel stop. It is astoundingly accurate with the Remington 30/06 180 gr PSP's I already had in stock. It keeps 3 shots touching a dime at my sight in distance of 235 yards proned out over my hunting daypack. Miracles of modern machining. A lightweight, cheap ass bambi blaster that tickles my redneck heart.

This went well with a cup of coffee this morning. Thank you Nutn.

I bought the 30-06 783 years ago from Sportsman Warehouse for under 400. Bolt handle and barrel have terrible bluing that needs a good layer of oil to keep from rusting. One of these days I'll give it a full paint over to save me the trouble. I'm glad you gave the 783 a good review since I've been thinking about getting rid of it for quite some time, as it kicks like a mule. I think I'll keep it a while longer, though I should've bought it in 308 to save my shoulder and my wallet some grief lol.

It’s crazy how good these more budget guns are getting. I like the the $$ cut is in stuff like stocks and finish vs barrels and actions like in older days.

This was the first gun I purchased years ago to go Elk hunting, mine is in 30-06. Shoots great and have a Leupold VX-2 3x9 on it. I would agree with the comment above, if you don’t keep it oiled it will rust. The finish isn’t that great. All in all it has been a great budget gun.

Perfect guns for some Krylon camo fun. As soon as my Axis got the scope mounted it was assaulted with rattle cans.

Lon N

Paint is the solution, not much guilt laying it on a cheaper firearm.

i carry a 9lb remington 700 for deer season in PA by the end of the first day i’m wishing it was lighter! ITs a tack driver unless i foul up the shot! can’t believe Remington is out of business

What are the odds my Brother in Law bought one yesterday in 7mm for $100. Of course I had to share the video with him! And ask him I'd he bought one for me too!!!

The Nutnfancy Project

You got a great value shooter there Lon, wow. That Savage Axis is another great rifle. When people ask me what rifle to get for hunting it's a top rec' for sure. That caliber is perfect too.

The Nutnfancy Project

You'll have some buyers here for sure if you want to dump it. What kind of accuracy do you get out of it Josh. This one here was incredible. I have found that for Rems it kind of depends on when the barrel was made in the rifling run; early ones when the cutters were new shoot awesome.

Rob Miller

Great video. Thank You!

Josh

I haven't been able to properly bench rest it to see what I can do with it, but I recall being able to get 2-2.5" at 100yrds with S&B 150g M1 Garand loads. I haven't tried top tier ammo, I need to buy a scope with finer cross hairs. I'm sure the gun can shoot better then me.

mike stevens

Reminds me of your Ruger American ranch 7.62x39 review. Thanks for that one! I have one now and love it.

JRP

I'm a Browning fan myself, but a friend of mine has Remingtons and Savages and we both do just fine for your basic hunting situations. Thanks for the review Nutn.

Craig

FFG - Fuck Freedom Group. Not only did they run Remington into the ground but also Marlin, H&R Firearms , Bushmaster, and others.

Z-non

Take your 180 lumen olight i3t to a 450 lumen beast by using a 10440 battery. Lighten everything

I'm a little late to the party, my wife and I went on an Anniversary vacation. I'm not a hunter but still enjoyed the GRV. Looks like a real fun shooter. It's funny how accurate guns put smiles on our faces. $350, what's not to like?

Buff Orpington

Been using the mossberg MVP (308) for longer range hunting and have been pretty happy with it. Worth a look. Though I’m a hipster with most of my hunting, since it’s usually between 0 and 100 yards, so I use a slug gun in a rifle state. And few things can beat the knockdown power of my savage 220 20 gauge sabot slug gun within that yardage. If you can find them, it’ll put Remington accutips within 1 inch at 100. That plus an aimpoint is my setup

Buff Orpington

One of my favorite range guns is the savage axis XP. Spent like $200 on the thing, re-mounted the provided scope, and it’s been great since. When I’m looking to save Ammo, I just take this thing out and enjoy some precision shooting

I believe it is the GemTech sandstorm
