The Scoremaster 511 series is a .22 caliber, bolt action, detachable magazine-fed rifle manfactured by Remington Arms between 1939 and 1963 and 1965 and 1967.[1][2] The Scoremaster 511 has a 25" barrel, a one piece hardwood stock, and a blued metal finish.
As the Scoremaster 511 was manufactured before 1968, these rifles do not have serial numbers. A two or three letter date code (indicating manfacture date) is stamped on left side of the barrel next to the receiver.
The Scoremaster 511 was part of the Remington 51x series of rimfire rifles consisting of the Targetmaster 510, Scoremaster 511, Sportmaster 512, Matchmaster 513, and 514.
