Remington 700 Sendero

[Dkk37058]

I got one in 7mm Remington Magnum when they first came out glass bedded the Action and lightened the trigger and it shoots very good

I have the chance to pick up a used Remington 700 Sendero chambered in .300 Win Mag.
I'd like some feed back please.

Thx

I had one when they first came out in the mid Nineties. It was blued and fluted in .300 WinMag. It would shoot well under a half inch with good loads. It was only available through Bill Hicks and Co. (Distributor).

If you can get it at a decent price, go for it.

that barrel will get awfully hot shooting steel matches. 10-15 rounds of 300wm can get even a heavy barrel toasty.

I agree with this. While a "heavier" contour - they are still thin enough to get pretty hot at 15 rounds.

The OP bought the rifle nearly a decade ago

I have the “tactical“ model, fluted barrel in 300wm. With 210 grains of H1000 I can get 1/2 to 3/4 groups at 100 and stays 1/2 to 300. Taken elk at 780 and 500 with one shot. Only difference is the stock I believe. I’m downsizing and hate to let it go but I may.

Bought one in 270 win in 2000. Blued non fluted. Was “the” rifle for about 12 years. Heavy as heck, but it had mojo. Was the first reasonably accurate rifle I owned. Killed a trailer load with 130 SGK’s. Used the action to build a very nice and more accurate 6.5x284, but still regret breaking it down.

210grains of H1000 in a win mag???

Probably a typo...

The gen one Senderos are the ones I like. I’ve owned them in 308, 7 mag and 338 RUM - neat Rifle, mine have all shot very good.

[snert]

They make great ZOMBIE guns.

I had a 300 RUM with a stainless barrel.

 

[Darkside]

I know its a OLD POST but I have a few Senderos they are great guns.

Do you have the early model in 25-06? Asking for a friend.

It still makes for good conversation don't you think?

Bought and still own a 1st generation sendero in 300 win mag.
Paid $500 off of gunbroker many years ago.
Best money I ever spent on a factory gun of this style.
Word on the street is it works good on zombies.

Mine are Ultra Mags, 7mm and 300rums.
No I don't have a 25-06 but if you tell me were I can buy one, I will buy it.

Yeah, I have almost pulled the trigger on one more than a few times. Back in the day they were alway on sale at gunshows. I looked at them a dozen times. I will for sure let you know when I see a mint condition Gen I 25-06 at a great price. . They have been dicovered for sure, the last few years.
