Rem 700 CP - 11/02/2018 2:39 PM
Anyone have any more insight into this?
@4:25 in the following video
https://guntalk.com/new-shotguns-remington-nasgw-2018-gun-talk-liveAppears that Remington is getting back in the game with a chassis pistol. I wonder what the cost will be and hope they offer it in a left handed version.

6.5 Creedmoor and I will buy one. Price?

If it?s over $1K, or MAYBE $1,200 they will have shot themselves in the foot.
If they want to win out, they have to crush Nosler on the price point.

You can get a threaded Remington 700 SPS for right around $500 +/-
Add a $350 to $450 chassis and voila! $1K-ish.
So, this pistol doesn?t have to break the bank. It ain?t nothing special. The price should (though probably won?t) reflect that.
I've got one coming for review. MSRP - $1020. 300 BLK, 223, 308 Win. Barrel length not to my liking.

not a bad MSRP, but doesn't leave much room to rebarrel for length or caliber

Zee, Barrel length for the .308 is 12.5". The other two are 10.5".

How about 14" in 243,260,7mm-08,308,338Fed,358win.
Apart from the barrel length, that sounds pretty decent!

They should should have brought it out in a left port/left bolt for right-hand shooters, and the barrel length...not impressed. Probably fine for the BO, but...
For me, I like the RB/RP being a lefty!

Mark you need to strongly encourage them to put a longer barrel (14-15 Inch)on all except the 300 BO. They also need a 6.5 and 7mm chambering.
Now to see what they have for a chassis.

i dont mean to be big green basher (see below) BUT id wait a couple of years to buy one to see if the 1st issue had some small troubles like the bolt falling off, safety not working,wont feed / eject, etc. It's too bad, i just dont trust Remington anymore.

A better chassis design would be something along the lines of the MDT LSS chassis.
more functional forend, and the back end of it could be bobbed/cut-off to have a better line as well.
