The Remington 700 Mountain SS in .243 Winchester pairs the lightweight stainless mountain platform with the dual-purpose varmint and deer cartridge, creating a field tool under 6.5 pounds that covers groundhogs in the morning and whitetail in the afternoon. The slim stainless 22-inch barrel and synthetic stock resist the condensation of cool mountain mornings. A practical lightweight option for hunters who want the Mountain SS's weight savings without committing to a full deer-caliber cartridge.
