OVERKILL
$100 Site Donor 2021
CADEX has updated their rifle lineup which now includes the 6.5 Creedmore and the .260 Remington. The former has limited cartridge availability in Canada, and since I, like many others, like to shoot box ammo when I shoot casually that leaves us with just the latter. This would be the same basic idea as my CDX-33: Remington 700-based in stainless with a Bartlein barrel, custom bolt, trigger....etc.

After some recent banter, I've been looking at 700's in .260 but of course the options are varied. Straight from Remington you can get it in stainless (without the heavy barrel) or with a heavy barrel, but not in stainless. Spend a bit more money and you can get both as featured here:

Gen2 Model 700 5R .260 Remington 24 Inch Threaded Fluted Barrel 5/8-24 TPI Black Cerakote Stainless Steel HS Precision Stock Sand With Black Webbing 4 Round. Gen2 model 700 with X-Mark Pro Trigger and the M700 stainless steel barreled action, threaded barrel with 5R rifling. 5/8-24 threads. Black Cerakote coated stainless steel barrel. HS Precision stock; sand with black webbing. Tactical bolt knob. Twist Rate: 1:8
Which is about $1,300.00 so pretty reasonably priced in comparison to the close to 6K for the CADEX.
Alternatively I could order the stainless Remington without the heavy barrel and order a Bartlein.
I'm thinking the Sniper Country 5R above is the best deal of the bunch in terms of what you get for your money. I can always order the CADEX trigger and upgrade it as I see fit.
Thoughts?
