Remington 783 Compact | .243 Win | 20in | Synthetic | R85852

The Remington 783 Compact is a bolt-action hunting rifle chambered in .243 Winchester with a 20-inch free-floating, button-rifled barrel and a matte black synthetic stock built on a dual-pillar bedding platform. It is a right-hand configuration with a detachable steel magazine and a user-adjustable CrossFire trigger. The receiver is drilled and tapped for optics, making it straightforward to mount a low- to mid-power hunting scope. An optic such as the Vortex Crossfire II 3-9×40 (commonly available well under $1,000) pairs well for field use and medium-range hunting with this platform.

Applications: medium-game hunting and precision varmint/target work where a compact, lightweight bolt-action rifle is preferred.
