The Remington model 770 is a magazine-fed bolt-action rifle marketed as a lower-cost alternative to the popular model 700. The model 770 is manufactured in several popular sporting cartridges. Remington Arms has a history of producing lower-cost alternatives to its flagship model 700 including the Remington 788 and earlier model 710 on which the model 770 is based.[1]
The Remington model 770 includes a mounted, boresighted 3-9x40mm scope and retails for less than most production bolt-action rifles. As of March 2009, the MSRP is USD $460–$540 depending on the model.[2] It uses plastic and molded parts wherever possible with particular attention being paid to lowering the overall cost of the rifle without sacrificing accuracy.
