Remington 783 6.5 Creedmoor Bolt-Action Rifle

Remington 783: Precision Meets Practicality

The Remington 783 represents a thoughtful approach to modern rifle design—delivering genuine accuracy and reliability without unnecessary complexity. This is a rifle built for hunters and shooters who understand that consistency matters.

Barrel and Action

The 783 features a 22-inch carbon steel barrel with button rifling and a 1:8" twist rate, optimized for 6.5 Creedmoor ballistics. The bolt-action design is straightforward and dependable, with a two-position thumb safety that provides intuitive control.

Stock and Bedding

The synthetic stock employs dual-pillar bedding that free-floats the barrel—a feature typically found on rifles costing considerably more. This design principle ensures shot-to-shot consistency by eliminating contact between barrel and stock that can cause point-of-impact shifts. The high nylon fiber content provides superior strength and rigidity without the weight penalty of wood.

Trigger and Recoil Management

The CrossFire trigger system is factory-set to 3.5 pounds and remains user-adjustable for those who prefer a different break. The center lever safety locks the trigger until fully depressed, adding an extra measure of control. The SuperCell recoil pad reduces felt recoil by up to 54% compared to standard pads—meaningful for extended shooting sessions.

Practical Details

A detachable steel magazine holding four rounds enables quick reloading in the field. Overall length is 41.63 inches; weight is 8 pounds—manageable for all-day hunting.

The 783 in 6.5 Creedmoor is a capable, honest rifle for hunters and target shooters alike.
