    I’ve got a Remington 700 5R chambered in 300 Winchester magnum that I’d like to sell. It has a 24” threaded barrel and the metal has been Duracoated in matte black. It also has a McMillan HTG stock in forest camo. It was hunted with a few times, so it has a couple nicks here and there but overall it’s in great shape. I’m the original owner and there’s approximately 150rds down the barrel, mainly shot during load development. I honestly hate to let it go because it’s such a tight grouper and the barrel is pretty fast for a 24”er, but it’s been in the back of my safe for quite a while and may as well go to someone who’ll use it. I will share my loads for 200gr Accubonds and 208 Amax with the buyer, they were both right at 3000fps with no signs of over pressure.

    $1300 shipped conus to your ffl from me (non ffl)

    I’m open to trades and will split the barreled action for $800 shipped conus.

    Trade interests include; S&W 357 or 44 revolvers, 20” factory ar15’s, LMT or KAC rifles/uppers, Beretta M9’s/92’s/variants, other interesting weapons.
     
    Do you have any group photos. Also what is the weight? I am trying to put together a 24" 300wm for a goat hunt this fall.
     
    I had a brain fart when I replied yesterday about weighing the gun because I forgot that it’s currently on the consignment rack at my dealer’s shop. From online research, the factory HS Precision stock is 1/2lb heavier than the McM htg that it’s current wearing so I’m gonna make an educated guess that it’s current weight is right at 8lbs.

    The only targets I could find from this gun were from late load development (2013]. I know, I know...3 shot groups but they’re all I’ve got at the moment. If there’s interest, I can try and get the gun from my dealer, slap a scope on it and shoot some groups. BTW, these were of my hunting load which was a 200 Accubond running 2900fps avg at 328’ elevation. Apparently I remembered wrong when I put it in my original post at 3000fps. I verified just now that my 200 Accubond load was 2898fps and 208 Amax was 2970fps, both at 50degF at 328’ elevation.

    What's the specs on the stock? Pillars from factory? Fill? Sling swivels #?
    Barrel contour of stock

    Factory pillars, standard fill, standard sling swivels (no flush cups) and Remington varmint barrel channel.
     
    Factory barrel? What profile?

    It’s a Remington varmint. I bought the gun new as a 24” threaded 300wm 5R complete rifle, swapped the HS Precision stock in favor of the McM HTG and sprayed all the metal (minus the jeweled bolt) with matte black duracoat.
