And yet again! Remington not making them in left hand actions. Or like the very few others they did make, only in limited calibers. Good luck during your bankruptcy! Perhaps the next owners of your company can get it right and make more left models. Ill never waste my money on any company that don’t.

I’ve used remington products all of my life and never had one problem.The rifles I own were getting old so I purchased a new remington 783,in the 3006 version.I have had this rifle several months nowand with all the negativity I been trying to find some problems.The only thing that I can find is it shots straight.

I’ve been a Remington user for over 40 years.I purchased a 700,742,1100,and a 597,and now I own the new 783.There are some things I really like and others I’m not fond of.It appears to be an accurate rifle,with some nice addition.I replaced the plastic stock with a boyd wooden stock.I’ve had a lot of people ask me about this new rifle ,because now it looks great and fires well.

I owned a 710 series I think that was the number, anyway when I shot the gun, the brass was way out of shape, the back of the brass was expanded to the point you can’t reload brass. you gave me a 783 series, to replace it. I have shot 2 boxes of shells, and went to reload and they are worse than the first one. had a friend try the brass in his 243 ruger, and couldn’t close the bolt on the brass. it was that bad, so I will never buy another Remington they are danerous to fire and you cannot reload shells. could never give a good report on this gun. It less than a year old and 2 boxes of shell shot through it.
very poor. Don Kelley
very disappointed customer

I have just bought this rifle Remington 783 30-06,will just test it and give feed back.Looks good and well designed for me. Its my first guys but have been using .303 before.Price does not matter but only the target is what i want to get out of the rifle.

Likely introduced to compete with new lower cost guns like Rugers American hunter.

I bought a 700bdl in the 70s new w/scope it still shoots a few years ago the 700varment SPS heavy barrel and last week the 783 and I love all three I don’t care about the changes I care about how they shoot and they all live up to what I expect out of a gun.

Not One person who replied here has ever shot one. How can you compare anything if you have not. I have shot one and I am very impressed with it. no its not my 700 but it was not intended to be. get the point. A mid grade rifle not a top of line. That is what they have said. compared to a savage and you talk about cheap. please. yes I have shot a savage. I’ve shot a lot of different guns in my 50 years. The 770 was a disappointing rifle but believe me this is nothing like the 770.
