When precision, reliability, and value are priorities for field use or range work, a well-configured bolt-action rifle remains the benchmark. This review breaks down the features that make the platform worth considering for hunters, competitive shooters, and tactical-minded owners who need a dependable, accurate rifle at an accessible price.

Remington 783 is a black synthetic bolt action rifle offered in multiple popular calibers — .270 Winchester, .30-06 Springfield, .308 Winchester, and 7mm Remington Magnum — and sports a 24-inch barrel that balances velocity and handling for long-range capability.

Platform and construction

The Remington 783’s black synthetic stock and 24-inch barrel create a rugged, weather-resistant package. The synthetic stock reduces weight and resists swelling in adverse conditions, while the 24-inch barrel improves muzzle velocity without making the rifle unwieldy for tactical or hunting movements. At a retail price of $429.99, it positions itself as a cost-effective entry into true bolt-action performance.

Caliber breakdown and applications

.270 Winchester

.270 is an excellent choice for medium to long-range hunts — flat-shooting and effective on deer-size game.

.30-06 Springfield

.30-06 offers broad versatility and is time-tested for larger game and heavier bullet options.

.308 Winchester

.308 provides consistent accuracy with widely available ammunition, ideal for tactical precision and target work within typical engagement ranges.

7mm Remington Magnum

7mm Rem Mag delivers superior long-range ballistics for extended-range hunting where retained energy downrange matters.
