The manufacturing of Remington-branded firearms is slowly re-emerging from its previous parent company’s bankruptcy. Newly re-organized in 2020 under the RemArms brand, production of classic Remington models, like the Model 700 bolt action and 870 shotgun, were the first to be re-introduced. For 2023, RemArms is bringing back Remington’s workhorse budget hunting rifle, the 783.

The Remington Model 783 was originally introduced in 2013 as part of a wave of budget bolt-action rifles that used modern precision manufacturing techniques to produce high-quality and accurate rifles at an affordable price.

The newly re-introduced 783 is offered in three basic configurations. All three use Remington’s user-adjustable bladed CrossFire trigger system, a Supercell recoil pad and built-in quick detachable sling swivels. The synthetic stocks are pillar-bedded and free-float the barrel. They use a detachable steel magazine that holds four rounds of standard-size cartridges or three magnum-size rounds. All models are finished in a matte black oxide.

The Synthetic model (MSRP $540) uses a black synthetic stock. It is available in a compact version with a 20” barrel and a 12 3/8” length of pull, or a standard version with a length of pull of 13 3/8” and a 22” barrel for standard cartridges and 24” barrel for magnum cartridges.

The Synthetic Camo model (MSRP $610) uses a Kryptek Obskura Transitional camouflage stock. It is only available in the full-size model in standard and magnum cartridges.

Both of these models use two-piece Remington Model 700 scope bases (bases are supplied with the Synthetic Camo model) and are available chambered in .243 Win., 6.5 mm Creedmoor, 7 mm-08 Rem. (Compact model only), .308 Win., .270 Win., .30-06 Sprg., 7 mm Rem. Mag. and .300 Win. Mag. 

The Heavy Barrel Threaded model (MSRP $600) is available in .308 Win. with a 16 1/2” barrel and .308 Win. or 6.5 mm Creedmoor with 24” barrels. This model uses a Flat Dark Earth stock, has an oversized bolt handle, and a heavy target barrel with its muzzle threaded 5/8 x 24 TPI. It is supplied with a one-piece optics rail.
