In this video we review the Remington 783 in all its facets. Is the 783 the budget hunting rifle you should buy or is it a hard pass?
I did the work for you on this one, doing a full accuracy test testing out various match ammunition's to see just how good (or bad this cheap little rifle could do) and yes it was an expensive review to produce ammo isn't getting any cheaper!
while the Remington 700 has been criticized through and through its younger brother the 783 is surprisingly impressive, keep in mind at this price your expectations should be reasonably low, this is no high end rifle. this rifle sport a adjustable trigger that truly amazed me, there was very very little creep to the Crossfire trigger and the breaking weight was very consistent more so than on some 1000$+ rifles (we wont name names....)
that and the bolt is quite smooth as well!
now for accuracy, we tested various different match ammunition on the Remington 783 in its original plastic pillar bedded stock, and we also upgraded the stock to a Boyds Heritage pillar bedded stock, now if the barreled action was capable of more than 1"-1.25" the we would have seen that with the boyds stock, then again 1"-1.5" is still perfectly fine for deer hunting, so ultimately it doesn't really need to be any better than that.
in this video we used the
-Boyd's Heritage Stock (color Royal Jacaranda)

info from the website:
IT'S NOT DRESSED TO IMPRESS, IT'S DRESSED FOR WORK.

Custom-grade accuracy is now within reach of virtually every hunter. Building upon expertise that's dominated bolt-action technology for more than 50 years, our engineering team started from a clean drawing board and combined their most advanced, accuracy-enhancing features to create an all-new platform.

The black synthetic stock is built around a dual pillar bedded platform that free floats the barrel, and contains a high nylon fiber content, which promotes superior strength and rigidity for shot to shot consistency. Also helping deliver those inherently tight groups is a precision button-rifled barrel. For shot control, it's equipped with the crisp new CrossFire™ trigger system that's user adjustable to suit your preferences.

The 783 features a steel detachable magazine with a steel latch. Standard calibers have a four round capacity and magnum calibers hold three rounds. Like with all Remington bolt actions, expect a lifetime of rock-solid reliability. From the next generation in a legendary bloodline.
