The Remington 700 Mountain in .243 Winchester brought the lightweight mountain hunting design to the dual-purpose varmint and deer cartridge. The slim 22-inch barrel and walnut stock produce a sub-6.5-pound rifle that handles like a fine sporting rifle in the field. The .243 Win chamber in the Mountain platform creates an ideal varmint rig for mountain goat country, where long shots at groundhogs and marmots between big-game hunts share the same terrain. Light enough to carry all day, accurate enough for any shot. Type: Rifle Action: Bolt-Action Caliber: .243 Winchester Capacity: 4 Year introduced: 1986, USA Weight: 40 oz Overall length: 42" Status: Active Intended use: Hunting, Varmint
