Rem 700 Long Action Stainless .473

The Remington 700 Long Action Stainless Steel with .473" bolt face is a precision rifle action engineered for long-range accuracy and reliability in demanding field conditions. Built from stainless steel throughout, this action resists corrosion in harsh environments—critical for operators working in coastal, alpine, or wet climates where standard steel actions deteriorate rapidly. The .473" bolt face accommodates magnum and ultra-magnum cartridges, making this platform suitable for long-range hunting, benchrest competition, and tactical applications requiring sustained accuracy at distance.

This action features the externally adjustable X-Mark Pro trigger, a two-stage match-grade trigger system that delivers a clean, predictable break without creep. The externally adjustable design allows field tuning of pull weight and overtravel—essential for precision shooting where consistency directly impacts group size. The stainless construction eliminates rust initiation from moisture exposure and salt air contamination, extending service life beyond standard parkerized or blued actions. Weighing 2.44 lbs, the action remains lightweight enough for portable rifle builds without sacrificing structural rigidity required for magnum cartridge pressures.

This platform serves precision rifle builders, magnum hunters, and long-range competitors who demand stainless steel durability and a tunable trigger in a proven action design. The 700 long action's reputation for accuracy stems from controlled bolt unlock, tight tolerances, and straightforward bedding geometry—factors that enable sub-MOA performance when paired with quality barrels and stocks. Shooters building custom rifles for extended-range cartridges like .300 Win Mag, .338 Lapua, or .300 Norma Mag benefit from the .473" bolt face's compatibility with existing magnum reloading infrastructure and factory ammunition.
